This is a basic potato soup. It's essentially mashed potatoes with extra milk but my husband (who generally doesn't care for soup) loves it.

1	Add diced potatoes, a tablespoon or so of butter and a dash of salt to a pot and cover them with water. Boil them until very tender (usually about 20 to 25 minutes).
2	Drain the potatoes. Mash them to the consistency you wish. It''s okay if it''s lumpy.
3	Stir in the rest of the butter and add salt to taste.
4	Pour in the milk (use enough to make it a soup, it''ll thicken as you stir so add it as needed).
5	Heat through. Add any more salt and pepper to taste.
6	Serve with shredded cheese on top if desired.
