Directions
Ed’s Favorite Baked Potato Soup, My husband doesn’t like potato soup, but this one, he’ll take seconds! I developed the recipe when I couldn’t find one with the combination of flavors I wanted , I really enjoyed this With the bacon and cheese on top, it reminded me of my favorite cheesy potato soup from a restaurant used to go to My husband thought it was a little bland but liked it once he added one of his numerous pepper sauces to his bowl , I was looking for one on here like my own homemade version, to get measurements for a small pot (I usually make 3 night’s worth) and FINALLY found someone who makes it the same way I do 🙂 I didn’t know there were so many versions, but thanks for the measurements and for posting such a yummy recipe! 🙂 I lighten it up with low fat ingredients, and use Hormel’s bacon pieces to avoid the bacon 🙂
