Directions
Peel and dice potatoes. Cook in salted water till
tender.
Drain; reserve about 1 cup of the water.
While potatoes are cooking. Melt butter in a
large stock pot. Saute onion and carrot until tender,
about 10 minutes. Stir in flour and chicken base. Cook
for 2-3 minutes. Slowly stir in milk and chicken broth.
Once incorporated, add the celery seed, pepper, salt and

Add cooked potatoes and simmer for a few more minutes.
Great served with bacon bits and cheese on top.
