I adore soups. Warm, comforting, filling and oh so delicious. I mean seriously veggies, meats, dairy – everything in one dish – the perfect bite. AND even better soups are so easy to make! I make soup probably once a week, so I have a ton of soup recipes to change things up often.
So when we decided to celebrate National Soup Month I knew just which soup to share – my one pot Loaded Baked Potato soup! I mean who doesn’t loved loaded baked potato and in soup form? YUM! I’m just a little obsessed with this one!
But let’s face it – anything made with bacon and bacon grease is bound to be good, right? after you cook the bacon you cook the potatoes and the onions in the grease left – YUM! Seriously so good! Then you not only stir in more onions, sour cream, cheese and of course bacon but you can also top each bowl with more to personalize it!
I think this might be my favorite month of “Celebrating Food” so far! Look how AMAZING all these soups look! I can’t wait to try some of them and add them to my rotation. We have a few new food bloggers you won’t want to miss so click over and check out each of their new recipes!
