Note
Serve hot with crunchy tortilla chips for dipping.
You can usually find the au gratin potato mix in the packaged potato and rice aisle in the supermarket.
For a richer flavor, you can substitute half-and-half for the milk.
If the soup becomes too thick after sitting, add a splash of milk or water to thin it out before reheating.
