Directions:
In large stockpot over low heat melt butter, stir in flour slowly and whisk until thick and bubbly. Gradually add milk, stirring constantly, until sauce has thickened. Add potatoes and onions. Continue to cook, stirring constantly until soup begins to bubble. Reduce heat, simmer gently for 10 min. Add remaining ingredients, stir until cheese is melted. Top with green onions and cheese if desired. Serve immediately.

Personal Notes:
Great for a cool fall night. The kids love it. Can also add corn for a potato-corn chowder. Cooked salmon is also good to add.
