Easy Potato Soup

My Mom gave me this recipe a few months ago, and it has turned into a family favorite at our house! Here's how to make it.

*6 potatoes, peeled and chopped (I always use around 9-10 to make more)
*1 onion, chopped

Cover with water (just to the top of the potatoes) and boil until potatoes are tender. Don't drain water!!

Add:
*2 Tbsp. chicken bouillon
*8 oz. sour cream
*8 oz. shredded cheese

Stir until smooth.

**I add carrots and celery in with the potatoes and onion before boiling. We also like this soup with crumbled bacon on top. Yum!!

    That sounds sooo yummy. Too bad my husband doesn't like soup because I would love to make it. I love putting corn in my potato soup when I do get to make it :)
