Notes

  • For a vegetarian version, substitute chicken broth with vegetable broth.
  • If you prefer a thicker soup, mash some of the potatoes before adding the cheese.
  • Use sharp cheddar for a more intense cheesy flavor.
  • You can add garlic powder or onion powder for additional seasoning.
  • Milk can be replaced with half-and-half or cream for a richer texture.
