Potato Soup

I got this potato soup recipe from my mother in law. We absolutely love it and it is very simple.You can, of course, decrease the cheese amount. I also add broccoli, carrots, corn, peas or any combination of those when I am in the mood. Very delicious, yet simple, soup INGREDIENTS Nutrition SERVINGS   4 UNITS   US 6 -8 medium potatoes 1 ⁄ 4 cup butter 1 ⁄ 2 cup flour 6 cups milk 2 teaspoons chicken bouillon 1 ⁄ 2 teaspoon salt 1 ⁄ 4 teaspoon pepper 1 ⁄ 2 lb cheddar cheese DIRECTIONS Peel, cube, boil, drain and "mush" potatoes to the consistency you like (I like them lumpy, but my kids like smaller pieces). In separate pan, melt butter, add flour and cook while stirring for about a minute or so. Add half the milk and stir until lumps are out of flour mixture. Add remaining milk and on med-high heat, heat to a boil. Stir almost constantly or it will scorch. After boiling, turn heat off and add remaining ingredients.

Ingredients 8 tablespoons (1 stick) unsalted butter 2 medium onions, chopped 3 medium celery ribs, chopped 1/2 cup chopped celery leaves (from inner celery ribs) 1 pound firm white sandwich bread, cut into 1/2-inch cubes and dried overnight or in the oven, or 10 cups plain bread croutons 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley 2 teaspoons poultry seasoning, preferably homemade (see Note) 1 1/2 teaspoons salt 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground pepper 1 1/2 to 2 cups turkey or chicken broth, as needed Directions In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat.
