So I'm going to have to apologize to all my readers for the delay in blog recipe posting in the last 6 weeks (or so). Life got pretty hairy between Thanksgiving, finals, Christmas, and now. But I have a few weeks off and hope you'll accept my apologies and enjoy these delicious recipes!
Loaded Baked Potato Soup
You will need:
12 slices of bacon
2/3 c. margarine (but I like to use butter, of course)
2/3 c. all-purpose flour
7 c. milk
4 large baking potatoes
4 green onions, chopped
1 1/4 c. shredded cheddar cheese
1 c. sour cream
1 tsp. salt
1 tsp. ground black pepper
Wrap potatoes in foil and bake in a 350 degree oven for approximately 1-1.5 hours. When soft, set aside to cool. Cook bacon, crumble, and set aside. In a stock pot of Dutch oven, melt the margarine over medium heat. Whisk in flour until smooth. Gradually add milk, stirring constantly until thickened (this will take some time, so don't worry if it doesn't get thick for awhile). Scoop out potatoes and add to stock, along with green onions. Bring to a boil, stirring frequently. Reduce heat, simmer for 10 mins. Mix in bacon, cheese, sour cream, salt and pepper. Continue cooking, stirring frequently, until cheese is melted. Serve and enjoy!
