Cheesy Potato Soup


Cheesy Potato Soup

6 c. cubed potatoes
2 c. water
1 c. sliced celery
1 c. sliced carrots
1/2 c. chopped onion
2 tsp. parsley flakes
2 chicken bouillon cubes
1 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. pepper
3 c. milk
1/4 c. all purpose flour
12 oz  Cheddar cheese, shredded

Combine potato cubes, water, celery, carrots, onion, parsley, bouillon cubes, salt and pepper in 2 quart saucepan.  Bring to a boil; reduce heat.  Simmer, covered, for 8 minutes or until vegetables are tender.  Mix 1/4 cup milk with flour in small bowl, stirring to form paste.  Stir into soup.  Add remaining milk and cheese.  Simmer of medium heat until thickened, stirring frequently.   About 9 servings.  I like additional cheese on top when I serve it. :)
