Cheesy Potato Soup

Ingredients:
6T butter
1 1/2 C chopped onions
1 1/2 C chopped celery
1-2 t salt or to taste
1/2 t white pepper
1T Wildtree California Garlic Pepper Blend
4 C prepared Wildtree Chicken broth
7-8 potatoes peeled & diced
6 oz sharp cheddar
4 T all-purpose flour
2 1/3 C milk
crumbled bacon or chopped parsley for garnish

Directions: Melt butter in large pot over medium heat. Saute the onions and celery in the butter for 5 to 10 minutes or until tender.

Stir in prepared Wildtree Chicken broth, salt, pepper & California Garlic Pepper Blend and then simmer until potatoes are tender. Add the cheese and stir until melted.

In a separate small bowl, combine the flour and the milk and stir until flour is mostly dissolved. Pour this into the soup slowly, stirring constantly, until soup has thickened, about 5 minutes. Garnish with crumbled bacon or parsley.

This takes less than 30 minutes to make and is the ultimate comfort food! Enjoy:-)
