"The tradition of Italian cooking is that of the matriarch. This is the cooking of grandma. She didn't waste time thinking too much about the celery. She got the best celery she could and then she dealt with it."--Mario Batali

Ingredients:  
32 oz Chicken Broth
2 c. milk
4 lbs of potatoes, peeled and diced
Salt and pepper to taste
1/4 c. butter
1/4 c. all purpose flour
2 c. cheddar cheese
1 onion, diced

Directions:
Directions:
To a 6 or 7-quart slow cooker, add potatoes, onion, chicken broth, milk and season with salt and pepper to taste. Cover with lid and cook on HIGH heat for 4 hours or LOW heat for 8 hours (poke potatoes with a fork to check make sure they're soft).
Ladle out 2 cups liquid from soup mixture in crock pot into a liquid measuring cup, set aside. In a medium saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Add flour and cook, stirring constantly, 2 minutes. While whisking, slowly pour the 2 cups of liquid from the soup into butter mixture (it will thicken quickly). Pour butter mixture into slow cooker and stir to blend. Cover and cook on HIGH heat until thickened, about 10 minutes. Serve warm topped with cheddar, bacon and green onions (you can just mix in those three remaining ingredients into slow cooker or top individual servings).
