I got this recipe from a coworker a few months after Shawn and I were married. It's pretty easy, it's really cheap, and Shawn and the girls really like it. It's also versatile; you can use sausage or ham instead of bacon, leave out the onion, leave out the cheese, add vegetables....
5-6 potatoes (it's easiest if the potatoes are already mashed. Some days I make extra mashed potatoes, and save the rest to make this soup the next day)
Crumbled bacon
Onion, diced and cooked, or onion soup mix
salt and pepper
grated cheese
If the potatoes aren't mashed, cut them into chunks and put in a pot with just enough water to cover them. Boil them until they are soft. Use an immersion blender or a potato masher to mash them in the water (you may want to drain off some of the water first, if there is a lot left in the pot). Add bacon, onion, and salt and pepper. Heat through. Top with cheese.
