- If you have some leftover potatoes of some kind, start with the onion in your pan.
- Place chopped onion in oil in a large pan and cook on low until translucent.

- Once soup is boiling well, add shredded cheese and cream and stir to combine.

Notes
This is a very large batch. My daycare kids eat like lumberjacks.
