season with garlic salt and pepper and cook till potatoes are tender.

Mash them up (i left mine kinda lumpy cuz that how i like it!)

throw in some cut up celery, green onions, bell peppers and onions

i fried some bacon really crispy and crumbled it in there

Let it cook till all veggies are tender and the soup is the consistancy you like

add in 2 8 oz packages of cream cheese, cook on high for about 30 mins until the cheese is melted and mixed well

and viola! Yummy! FYI: this makes A LOT!
