Making Monday: Cheesy Potato Bacon Soup

     Though the holiday season is over, I thought I'd still occasionally share some recipes with you all. I've been craving potato soup for months now, so today, I'm sharing Crock Pot Cheesy Potato Soup. It's really like a soup-ed baked potato. I cut out the onions and put bacon in the actual soup rather than on top., but it's still really good!

Recipe from Recipes that Crock.

• 6 cups potatoes, peeled and cubed
• ½ c onion, diced
• 32-oz container chicken broth
• 1 c water
• 3 T all-purpose flour
• 1 c milk
• salt and pepper to taste
• 8-oz pkg shredded Cheddar cheese
• Bacon and Green Onions for garnishing. 

Peel and cut your potatoes into cubes
Dice about a half of a small onion until you have ½ cup
Put potatoes and onion in your crock pot
Add your chicken broth and water to your crock pot
Cover and cook on low for 6-7 hours
Mix together your flour, salt, pepper and milk.
Pour mixture into your crock pot and turn the heat to high
Cover and cook for an additional 20-30 minutes
When the soup has thickened, add your cheese and stir together until the cheese melts
Garnish with bacon and green onions
