It is finally FALL…which means soups!! And one of the first soups I think of is Creamy Potato Bacon Soup. I’m so excited to be pulling out the soup recipes (even though here in AZ our temps are still in the 90’s…I won’t even go into that though!) Growing up in Idaho made me grow to LOVE potatoes. I didn’t always like potatoes but now I will eat a potato in any form. This soup is one of my favorites! It is super creamy and is as flavorful as a loaded baked potato.
Ingredients
- 1 lb bacon. chopped and cooked
- 1 onion, minced
- 4 garlic cloves, minced
- 2 tbsp flour
- 4 cups chicken broth
