This recipe for loaded baked potato soup is outstanding. You will agree after tasting the rich and creamy texture with crispy bacon and melted cheese; it's dreamy actually. I offer many variations of homemade potato soup that are so tasty and satisfying. Let's get cooking.

Ingredients

• Serve with:
• 2 large cooked baked potatoes, peeled and cubed
• 1 cup half-and-half cream
• 5 bacon strips, chopped
• 1 onion, chopped
• 1 tsp garlic powder
• 1 tsp onion powder
• 3 TBS flour
• salt and pepper to taste
• cheddar cheese, shredded
• green onion, chopped
• sour cream

Preparation

Step 1

In a skillet, fry chopped bacon and onion until bacon is cooked and onion is tender. Remove and drain; set aside.

In the same bacon fat, add the flour and whisk together until smooth. Gradually whisk in the broth, bring to a boil and mix for two minutes. Add the potatoes and half-and-half. Mix well until heated through. Top each serving with cheddar cheese, bacon and sour cream. Delish.
