CHARMIE'S POTATO CHEESE SOUP

Steps:

• Melt the butter in a large pot.
• Fry onions for 3 minutes (don't let brown).
• Add garlic and continue to sauté for 1-2 minutes.
• Add the potatoes and water.
• Bring to a boil; reduce heat and simmer until the potatoes are very tender.
• Mash potatoes until at desired consistency. Or use a hand blender. I like mine left with some chunks.
• Add milk and salt and pepper to taste.
• Cook over medium heat until milk begins to simmer.
• Add the cheese and stir until it melts.
• Do not boil!
