Special Precautions and Tips:

• If you don't have cream of celery soup, you can use cream of mushroom soup instead.
• If you don't have milk, you can use half-and-half or even heavy cream.
• You can add other ingredients to your potatoes, such as cooked ground beef, bacon, or vegetables.
• Be sure to bake the potatoes until they are tender before adding the cheese. This will help prevent the cheese from burning.
