Ingredients
Scale
- 4 large potatoes, peeled and diced
- 1 onion, diced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 4 cups chicken or vegetable broth
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/2 cup sour cream

Instructions
- Sauté the diced onions in a large pot over medium heat until translucent, about 3-4 minutes. Add minced garlic and sauté for an additional minute.

- Reduce the heat and simmer uncovered for 15-20 minutes, or until the potatoes are fork-tender.
- Mash some of the potatoes in the pot for a thicker consistency, or use an immersion blender for a creamier texture.

- Serve in bowls, garnished with chopped green onions and bacon bits, and enjoy!
