Cheesy Potato Soup

5 potatoes, peeled and cubed
1 small carrot, finely chopped
1/2 stalk celery, finely chopped
1 1/2 cups water
1 tsp salt
2 1/2 cups milk
3 tbsps margarine, melted
3 tbsps all-purpose flour
1 1/2 tsps steak seasoning
1 tsp ground black pepper
2 cups shredded four-cheese blend

In a large pot over medium heat, combine potatoes, carrot, celery, water
and salt. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat, cover and simmer until
potatoes are tender, 15 to 20 minutes. Once tender, stir in milk.

In a small bowl, combine melted margarine, flour, steak seasoning and
pepper. Stir into soup, increase heat to medium, and cook, stirring,
until thick and bubbly. Remove from heat and stir in cheese until
melted. Let stand 5 to 10 minutes before serving.
