Steps

1

Peel and dice potatoes. Put diced potatoes into the bottom of a 6-quart slow cooker.
2

Top diced potatoes with chopped onion, garlic and celery.
3

Add chicken broth, salt and pepper. Broth will not completely cover potatoes.
4

Cover and cook on a high setting for 4 hours or until potatoes are tender.
To speed up the process, you can precook the potatoes by boiling them then add them to the slow cooker.
5

Mash mixture with a potato masher. (Don't mash completely, leave some potato chunks.)
6

Stir in half and half. And add cheese.
7

Cover and cook on high setting 20 more minutes, or until mixture is thoroughly heated
8

Ladle into bowls and garnish with your favorite toppings
