The site explains, “This hearty and flavorful soup is so easy to make…simply mix the ingredients in a slow cooker and let it do the work for you. And to make it even better, stir in Cheddar just before serving and top with a sprinkle of chives.”

- 2 large potatoes (about 1 pound), peeled and cut into
- 1/2-inch pieces (about 3 cups)
- 1/2 cup chopped fresh chives
- 2 cups shredded Cheddar cheese (about 8 ounces)
Directions

Have you tried this? How does this compare to Sharon’s potato soup recipe?
It’s not as good Lisa. Of course, I think Sharon’s soup is on my list of top ten things ever. That’s the soup that got me through pneumonia. This is just a simple alternative. I don’t get to make Sharon’s recipe much anymore.
