'Tisha's Potato Soup

You'll need:

8 Potatoes (I use red skinned)
6 Strips Bacon, Chopped
1 Onion, Chopped
1 Clove Garlic, Minced
1/2 t Crushed Red Pepper Flakes
2T flour
2 C Chicken Broth
1 C Milk
1 C Sour Cream
Salt & Pepper
Shredded Cheese
Green Onions

How You'll Make it:

Bake potatoes in microwave or oven until done. Once baked, cut into bite-sized pieces.

Meanwhile, brown chopped bacon in a soup pot or dutch oven. Remove bacon from pan to drain.
Pour off all but 1 T of drippings. Saute onion and garlic in bacon drippings. Add red pepper flakes. Add flour and let thicken. Add broth, milk, and sour cream. Heat through (do not boil).

Add cut potato pieces back in. Salt and pepper to taste Serve garnished with browned bacon bits, chopped green onions and cheddar cheese.

'Tisha's Verdict: "My four year old went nuts over it!"
