Potato Cheddar Bacon Soup
This recipe was submitted by Michelle Tolman.
7-8 small red potatoes
1 onion
4 stalks of celery
1/4 cup butter
1/4 cup flour
4 cups milk
1/2 tsp sugar
1 tsp chicken boullion
4 pinches parsley
1 package bacon
1 cup cheddar cheese
Cook bacon and let cool. Peel, cube, and rinse potatoes. Chop onion and celery. Place potatoes, onion and celery in pressure cooker with 1 1/2 cups of water. (if you don't have a pressure cooker, boil on stove for 15-20 minutes.) Retain water in case you need it to thin sauce.
In a large microwave bowl melt butter.
Add flour to melted butter & wisk until smooth. Add salt, pepper, boullion, sugar, and parsley. Mix together. Add milk and stir. Cook 2 minutes in microwave then stir. Repeat every 2 minutes until sauce is creamy. It will be a thin sauce, but it thickens. Add potato mixture to sauce, stir. Crumble bacon, add cheese, & stir.
Serves 8-10
