Slow Cooker Cheesy Potato Soup

Hm, I made a veggie lasagne a while back that I didn't post. I don't know where the recipe is now! If I can find it, I'll post it. I had found it online.

Anyway, right now I am making this in the crock pot! It'll be ready before too long and then I'll take a picture and we'll rate it! The original recipe is here. I made just a few slight changes/additions.

Ingredients:

32 oz. potatoes, diced
1/2 c celery, diced
1 carrot, sliced
1 garlic clove, minced
onion powder, to taste
32 oz. no-chicken broth
1 c water
1 c milk
3 T all-purpose flour
8 oz (2 c) shredded cheddar cheese
1/4 c bacon bits, if desired

Directions:
1. Combine potatoes, celery, and carrot in crock pot. Sprinkle with onion powder. Pour in the water and broth. Cook on low for 5 hours.
2. Stir flour into milk. Add to crock pot. Change to high and cook 20-30 minutes, until thickened.
3. Stir in cheese until melted. Garnish individual bowls with bacon bits. Enjoy!*
Makes 6 servings.

*We seasoned with salt & pepper. Next time I make this, I'm going to replace the water with beer. And maybe throw in some broccoli.
