In a large pot or dutch oven, over medium heat, boil the potatoes with 1 cup water or broth until fork tender. Add the cooked mushroom onion mix, milk, and cream. Take it to a boil and reduce the heat to medium low, simmer for 10-15 minutes until soup thickens. Don’Try not to boil the cream.

NOTES
To store. Let the creamy soup cool and store it in the fridge in an airtight container for up to 3-4 days. The soup may separate slightly but after reheating it it shoudl be just fine.
To reheat. Over the stovetop or individual portions in the microwave. The soup is best and fresh as soon as prepared, and I do not recommend freezing creamy soups.
This soup is not as thick as my Gluten Free Cream Of Mushroom Soup. If you like the soup to be thicker, with an immersion blender or in a food processor, puree half of the potatoes until chunky or stir in a cornstarch slurry (1 tablespoon cornstarch + 1 tablespoon water).
