SIMPLE Crock pot Potato Soup

6 LARGE potatoes {peeled & cubed}
1 LARGE yellow onion {diced}
1 qt chicken broth
3 garlic cloves {minced} I don’t like garlic so I didn't use it
1/4 c butter
Salt & Pepper to taste
1 ½ C diced ham

Directions: Mix all ingredients  together in the crock pot except the cream and ham. Cook on LOW for 8 hours or HIGH for 4 hours. {until potatoes are tender} About an hour before soup is done add diced ham. When potatoes are tender mash them with either a wire whisk or a potato masher until lumpy and soup is slightly thickened. Stir in cream and cook for 10~15 mins longer then its ready to serve. You may either add cheese on before you serve it or let everyone garnish their own.
Toppings: Bacon, chives, cheese, sour cream the possibilities are endless
