Grab your apron and start stirrin’
It may be warm and sunny where you are, but here in my neck of the woods it’s cold and rainy. This evening, after my little stint at Farmgirl Finds (stop in today!), I’m going to make my cousin’s loaded baked potato soup. I’ve posted the recipe here before, but it seemed like a good day for a repeat.
Loaded Baked Potato Soup
4 large potatoes
2/3 c. butter
2/3 c. flour
1 ½ qt. milk
4 green onions chopped
1 c. sour cream
2 c. crisp-cooked crumbled bacon
5 oz. cheddar cheese
Salt and pepper to taste
Heat oven to 350 and bake potatoes until fork tender. Melt butter in medium sauce pan. Slowly blend in flour with wire whisk until thoroughly blended. Gradually add milk to butter/flour mixture, whisking constantly. Whisk in salt and pepper. Bring to a slow simmer over low heat, stirring constantly.
Peel and cut potatoes into cubes. When milk mixture is simmering and is a thick consistency, whisk in potato. Add onion and some potato peels if you like. Whisk well, add sour cream and crumbled bacon. Heat thoroughly. Add cheese a little at a time until all is melted. If it gets too thick just add more milk. The key is to stir constantly.
Enjoy!
Oh, Will you save me a bowl? Pretty Please with Chocolate on Top!!!! I’ll trade you for some pizza! It’s so much better when you make it!
Sounds wonderful! Mother Goose, I think it would be gross with chocolate on top. haha!
Wishing I were there. Too hot here for soup though. The boys went camping, and the girls worked at a yard sale. It was a fun weekend.
Sounds like lots of fun!
Made your soup yesterday, it is really good! Thanks for the recipe. Enjoyed looking at your shop yesterday too!
Oops! I made the soup yesterday but was at your shop on Saturday!
