1/2 tsp sugar
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

Gradually add potatoes, reserved liquid, milk and sugar to onion mixture; stir well. Add cheese. Simmer over low heat 30 minutes, stirring frequently.
3. Tip: Turn simple soup into a filling supper by serving it in individual bread bowls. Buy or bake small, round loaves of a hearty bread, such as Italian or sourdough. Slice a small piece from the top and then remove the inside of the loaf, leaving a 1-1/2 inch shell. Fill with soup and serve.
