Okay, this is a favorite in our house and my go-to meal. It is one of the easiest and cheapest meals you can make! Plus its easy to change up a bit every time!
Ingredients:
3 potatoes
1/2 cup butter (You can get by with 1/4 cup)
1 small onion diced
1/2 cup flour
2 cups hot water with 2 cubes chicken bullion dissolved in it OR 2 cups chicken stock
2 cups milk
Salt and Pepper
Optional other seasonings like garlic powder, parsley, or a bay leaf.
Toppings: shredded cheese, sour cream, bacon bits, chives
Directions:
Bake potatoes. If you don't have time to bake them in the oven, toss them in the microwave for 10 minutes or so to bake. Saute onion in butter in a pot till tender. Add flour. Slowly add water with bullion or chicken stock. Add milk. Dices potatoes leaving the peel on or taking it off. I usually leave mine on for sake of time and added fiber! Stir with whisk till thickened. I also season with parsley and garlic powder. Add salt and pepper to taste. This is an easy one to stretch. Simply add more flour at the beginning and more liquid. I also sometimes add corn, peas, carrots, or broccoli, whatever I have on hand. Top with shredded cheese, bacon bits, sour cream and chives.
