Preparation
Step 1
In a large stockpot, stir together the white parts of the sliced green onions (not the green hollow parts), broth, hash browns, and seasoning. Heat over medium-high heat until the soup reaches a low boil, stirring occasionally. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Step 2
Once the potatoes are cooked and soft, use an immersion blender to puree most of the soup until it is nice and thick. (Or you can transfer the soup to a traditional blender, and puree it there until smooth.) Return soup to stockpot, and stir in cheddar until combined.
Step 3
Serve warm, garnished with extra cheddar and the green parts of the green onions.
