Baked Potato Soup
A tasty way to use leftover baked potatoes to feed a hungry family is in this creamy baked potato soup with crispy bacon bits and shredded Cheddar!

Place bacon in a large skillet and cook over medium-high heat turning occasionally until evenly browned about 8 to 10 minutes.

Drain bacon slices on paper towels; crumble and set aside.

Meanwhile melt butter in a stockpot or Dutch oven over medium heat.

Gradually add flour whisking until well-combined.

Slowly pour in milk whisking constantly until smooth and thickened.

Add potatoes and onions and bring to a boil stirring frequently.

Reduce heat and simmer for 10 minutes.
