6 Large potatoes, peeled and cubed
1 Onion, chopped
1 Chicken bouillon
1 T. salt
1/2 C. Butter
9 T. Flour
6 C. Milk
2 C. Shredded cheddar

Place potatoes and onion in a large soup pot. Add water to cover potatoes plus one inch. Bring to a boil. Add salt and bouillon. In a separate pot, melt butter on medium heat. Let butter bubble, then add flour, stirring constantly. Let bubble again. Slowly add milk and cheese, continuing to stir constantly. Keep cooking on medium heat until thick and bubbly. Once thick and melted, pour into the potatoes, onion and water. Bring to a boil. Add salt and pepper to taste. Serve with shredded cheddar, bacon crumbles, chopped green onion, or anything else that sounds good to you!
