Easy Potato Soup from Sam the Cooking Guy

Ingredients:
3 big baking potatoes, peeled and diced
1 big red onion, diced
3 cups chicken broth, diced - just kidding
2 T butter
1 1/2 cup heavy whipping cream
3 T fresh chopped parsley

Put potatoes in a large pot, cover with chicken broth and simmer until soft, about 15 minutes. Saute onions in butter until softened. Add about 3/4 of the onions, whipping cream and parsley to the potato pot. Simmer on low about 5 more minutes until the it thickens a bit. With the back or a large spoon, mash some of the potatoes in the pot while it's simmering - just for fun. Serve in bread bowls (we get the sourdough bread bowls at Walmart) with whatever toppings you can find. We've done cheddar cheese, crispy bacon pieces, the remainder of the sauteed red onion, croutons, diced leftover chicken etc.
