Steps:

• In a 3-qt sauce pan, combine potatoes, water, regular salt, and pepper.
• NOTE: If using real, uncooked potatoes, bring to a boil, cover and simmer for 10 mins, until potatoes are tender.
• If using canned potatoes, bring to soft boil.
• Turn down heat to medium.
• Gradually add soup and milk, stirring constantly.
• Add onions, garlic, Johnny's seasoning salt, and dashes of hot sauce, and allow to cook, while stirring, for 5 minutes.
• Stir in sour cream, bacon, and parsley, and heat thru.
• Top with additional pepper and cheese.

Steps:

• Bring water to a boil in a medium saucepan.
• Add potato cubes and stir to make sure they are just covered with water.
• Cook potatoes until fork tender, maybe 10 minutes.
• Drain potatoes and set aside.
• In a large pot melt butter over medium heat and stir in onion. If using real onion cook until just translucent.
• Stir in the flour and cook stirring constantly for at least a minute to get rid of the raw flour taste. (If you've never worked with roux it will look like a really thick paste at this point. That's great- keep stirring :) ).
• Add red pepper flakes and salt & pepper.
• Slowly add the 1 cup of broth stirring as you pour it into the roux. Stir until smooth.
• Start adding the milk and cream and stir until smooth.
• Bring the mixture up to a low simmer stirring constantly. Simmer 2-3 minutes.
• Add the sugar and the shredded cheese.
• Stir until cheese is melted.
• Stir in Bacon or Ham and potatoes and cook for 1 minute to heat potatoes thru.

Steps:

• In a stockpot or Dutch oven, bring the broth to a boil over high heat.
• Add diced potatoes and onions and return to a boil.
• Reduce heat to a simmer, partially cover and cook 20-25 minutes, until potatoes are tender.
• Using a potato masher, coarsely mash the potatoes in the pot (do not drain).
• Add seasonings, parsley, crumbled cooked bacon or diced ham, and the chunks of cream cheese.
• Cook and stir for a few minutes, until cheese is melted. Stir well to combine.
• Serve soup hot with a side salad and a crusty baguette.

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a deep pot over medium-high heat. Add the celery and onions and saute until the veggies begin to soften, about 2 minutes. Add the potatoes and toss with a good pinch of salt. Add the chicken stock and simmer until the potatoes soften, about 20 minutes. Then add the milk and butter, and stir until the butter melts.
• At this point you have a few options. If you have an immersion blender, simply stick the wand in the pot and give it a few whizzes, blending some of the soup until it's nice and creamy. You'll still want a good amount of potato chunks in the soup, so don't go overboard, like I tend to do.
• You can also scoop out about 2 cups of the soup and transfer it to a blender or food processor. Blend until creamy and transfer it back to the soup pot.
• Or, you can simply mash a few of the potatoes with a potato masher, leaving it on the slightly chunkier side. It's up to you!
• After you've creamified it, give it another taste and add plenty of salt and pepper if needed.
• Scoop out a little for the kids and keep it simple for them with shredded Cheddar and a kiss of chives! (Chives are optional, of course.) As for you, adult faces, load up your bowls with plenty of chopped bacon, Cheddar, little dollops of sour cream, sliced jalapenos and chives!
