Crock Pot Chronicles #6 UPDATE

I got impatient waiting for the soup to finish. In fact, I probably checked on it every ten minutes. Something just wasn't right. It was too...soupy. Ok...I know it's soup so it's supposed to be soupy, but I like my potato soup a little thicker/creamier. At one point I seriously considered dumping the whole thing down the drain.

In a last ditch effort to save what was looking to be another culinary failure...I began to add my own ingredients.  Usually when I start experimenting (instead of just sticking to the recipe) is when things start to go wrong. But...it was either that or take a dump (the soup not me). First I diced up some onion and threw that in. Then I added some more pepper and a little salt. And then I hit it with the big gun...CHEESE! I love cheese and everything tastes better with cheese right?
Drumroll please......

IT WORKED!  IT ACTUALLY WORKED! The soup wouldn't win any awards at the county fair, but it was edible and really pretty tasty if I do say so myself.

Here is a picture of the finished product. Kayla got home right as the soup was finishing up and ate a big bowl of it. I think she was pleasantly surprised!

So after what I consider a pretty big win....what's on the menu for tonight?
Well I found a recipe online for crockpot orange chicken......stay tuned!
