Cream Cheese Potato Bacon Soup
This soup is essentially everything good in life wrapped up in a bowl of pure joy. If you love potatoes, cheese, and bacon (because who doesn’t?), this dish is about to become your new best friend. Let’s get cooking!
Ingredients:
- 1 lb (about 4) potatoes, peeled and diced
- 4 slices of bacon, chopped
- 1 onion, chopped
- 4 cups chicken broth
- 1 package (8 oz) cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Chopped green onions for garnish (optional but extra fancy!)
Instructions:
- First things first, grab a big pot and put it on medium heat. Toss in those chopped bacon pieces and let them sizzle until they’re crispy heaven. Because crispy bacon is the secret to life.
- Once your kitchen smells like a breakfast diner, add in the chopped onions and let them cook until they are soft and translucent. They should be so fragrant that they practically sing to you.
- Next, throw in the diced potatoes and pour in the chicken broth. Bring that mix to a simmer. Let it bubble away for about 15-20 minutes or until the potatoes are tender. Go ahead and stir occasionally. You don’t want them to feel lonely.
- Once the potatoes are soft, it’s time to bring in the big guns: add in the cream cheese and cheddar cheese. Stir until they melt into a creamy dream that you just want to dive into face-first.
- Season with salt and pepper—you know the drill. Don’t be shy with the seasoning; it’s what makes the soup sing!
- If you’re feeling extra fancy, garnish with some chopped green onions. They add a pop of color and make you look like you really know what you’re doing.
- Serve hot and enjoy the warmth that spreads through your soul. This soup is like a hug in a bowl—just with a bit more bacon!
