Potato Soup

Ingredients

• 6 medium potatoes, cubed
• 1/2 tsp. onion, diced
• 1/2 stick butter
• 1 box instant potatoes (reg. size)
• salt and pepper ( to taste)
• 1 can corn
• ham, cubed (to taste)

Directions

In a large pot, place the cubed potatoes, onion, butter, salt and pepper together. Boil until the potatoes are tender. Mash the potatoes, in the pot, until they are chunky; do not drain the water. Add the milk and stir. Add the instant potatoes, a little at a time, while stirring. (This will thicken the soup to the consistency you want.) If the soup becomes too thick, add a little more milk, if too thin, add more instant potatoes. Add the corn and ham. Bring to a boil while stirring constantly.
