The easiest potato cheese soup EVER!

This is a soup my mom has always made when I was growing up. It has few ingredients and the great thing is you can't really mess it up.  The measurements are different every time, so you just have to see what you like and add more or less.
To start out I added about 1/2 cups of celery and a half an onion. Put it in a stock pot with 1/4 cup of butter. Let it simmer until the onions are translucent

Add in the chunks of potato and the chicken broth and let it boil until the potatoes are tender
Of course I didn't get this next part on camera, but pour half of the soup in the blender with 1/4 cup of velveeta cheese and blend it until it is smooth and creamy. Add more cheese if you like it cheesier. You might want to let it cool down before you put it in the blender.  Pour the creamy soup into a different pot and put the rest of the soup in the blender with more cheese.  Once it is all blended heat it back up and serve it in hollowed bread bowls with bacon bits and shredded cheese. Enjoy :)
