This is similar to my Mom's potato soup. When my children were small, I began adding finely chopped carrots and celery for added nutrition. Fresh thyme and a bit of sage are good, too. At our home this soup is served with corn bread. The best!

This is the recipe my Mother used...didn't put crackers on top, homemade yeast bread and butter! The best ever. I love this recipe. I hadn't thought about it in years and now believe I will make it for my children. Thank-you!

 Heather (Ohio) says:
I make pretty much the same way, but I am even lazier. I use frozen diced potatoes and onion. I hate peeling and chopping veggies. I also boil my potatoes and onion in chicken broth and only add just enough milk to give it the creamy "look." this cuts down on fat to make up for the cheese and bacon I put on top... And don't forget the finely sliced green onion :)

I am on a strick diet and can only have starch at lunch and wanted a new recipe when I found this I fell in love! It is amazing! I added a fried some bacon first and added it in while the potatoes and onions were cooking to give it some flavor and before I ate it at lunch I heated it up and melted some shredded cheese on top and added a little more bacon. I must say, this is a great recipe! I will be cooking this a lot! Thanks for sharing!
