Baked Potato Soup

My kids love this soup and it's a great addition to the classic potato soup!
It serves about 4-6 people.


31/2 - 4 cups water
4 chicken boullion cubes
2-4 large potatoes, peeled and chunked
2-3 carrots, sliced
1 tsp. dillweed
  1. Boil together the above ingredients till the vegetables are tender. Then mash until coarse.
IN ANOTHER POT
1/4 cup butter
4 Tbsp. flour
1 cup milk
1 cup shredded cheese
  1. Melt together butter and flour, constantly whisking. Add milk slowly until thick and bubbly. Add the cheese with the pot off the stove.
  2. Add the sauce to the mashed veggies and mix and heat up till well combined. Remove from the heat and add 1/2 cup sour cream.
  3. Garnish with bacon, ham, sour cream, cheese or green onions. Like you would do for a baked potato. I also just like it plain if I don't have some of the above ingredients. Serve
