Ingredients:
2-1/2 pounds potatoes, peeled and cubed
1 cup finely chopped celery
1/4 cup finely chopped onion
2 tablespoons butter
1/4 cup king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground celery seed
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1 cup fat-free milk
1-1/2 cups reduced-fat sour cream
1 cup (4 ounces) shredded reduced-fat cheddar cheese, divided

Directions:
1. Place the potatoes, celery and onion in a large saucepan; cover with water. Bring to a boil; cover and cook just until tender, about 15 minutes.
