Baked Potato Soup
Posted in Great Recipes on 06. Oct, 2009
Get ready for it – the recipe for the best baked potato soup ever. Every time I make this soup for dinner, my husband is thrilled. My kids love it, and it makes great leftovers. This soup is easy, delicious, and… did I mention delicious?
Ingredients:
4 large baked potatoes
2/3 cup butter
2/3 cup flour
6 cups milk (I recommend 2% – it’s just the right consistency)
½ tsp salt
½ tsp pepper
4 green onions (or more, depending on your preference – I sometimes use 5 or 6)
12 slices of cooked bacon, crumbled
2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
8 oz light sour cream
- Cut the baked potatoes in half. Scoop out the potato pulp and set aside.
- Melt the butter in a soup pot. Add the flour and whisk. Gradually stir in the milk, continuing to whisk. Stir until smooth, thick, and bubbly.
- Stir in the potato pulp, salt, pepper, and most of the green onions, bacon and cheese. (Reserve some of the last three ingredients for topping on your soup.)
- Continue to stir until the soup looks and smells so good, you have to eat it right away. Serve with green onions, bacon and cheese as toppings.
Enjoy!
