Loaded Baked Potato Soup

Make my delicious soup with just a few ingredients!!

Start by boiling some water then peel & cut 6 large potatoes

Then cut bacon into thick strips & fry it
LEAVE THE GREASE IN THE PAN 😎

Dice half a onion & add it to the grease cook them till they are translucent

Add a hefty 1/2 cup of flour to the mix & stir until all the white from flour is gone

Rapidly pour in 8 cups of milk & stir, let it thicken up

Add in seasonings:
2 TBS Salt
2 TBS Pepper
1TSP Paprika
1 TBS Garlic powder

By now the potatoes should be almost fork tender

Add the potatoes into milk & let it simmer for about 10 mins so the potatoes break down a bit more

Add in some sour cream 1/2 cup or so add more or less this is for a extra creamy rich soup so it's really up to you

Sprinkle in about a cup of shredded cheese whatever kind your family prefers we used Colby jack add more if its not cheesy enough for you 😉

Add in the bacon strips some chives (but our company was allergic) & enjoy!!
