THICK AND CREAMY POTATO BACON SOUP RECIPE

Steps:

• Cook bacon using preferred method until crisp. (I bake thick cut bacon on a cooling rack over a sheet pan so that it remains flat). Allow to cool and chop or crumble into small pieces. Reserve several tablespoons of drippings.
• Place a large soup pot or heavy casserole over medium heat. Add 2 tbsp. bacon drippings and cook onions, stirring frequently, until translucent. Add garlic and cook another 2 minutes, stirring often. (Add more bacon drippings if onion looks dry. This will depend on the size of your pot and particular onion.)
• Add potatoes and cook, stirring occasionally for a few minutes. When everything is sizzling nicely, add enough stock to just cover potatoes. Reduce heat, cover and simmer for approximately 15 to 20 minutes or until potatoes are fork-tender.
• Mash potatoes roughly with a potato masher. Scoop out about half of the remaining mixture and puree in a blender (in batches!) or food processor. (Or if you've got an immersion blender, go for it with that.) Make sure to leave a good bit of the potatoes chunky, for texture.
• Add butter and heavy cream. Stir to combine well. Taste for seasoning and add more stock if soup is too thick for your liking. When the consistency is right for you, stir in bacon and bring to just a bare simmer, stirring often.
• Serve hot. Garnish with additional crumbled bacon and some chives or green onions.
• Share and Enjoy!

CREAMY POTATO SOUP WITH BACON {WHOLE30}

Steps:

• Heat a large stock pot/dutch oven (cast iron preferred) over medium-hi heat and add the bacon to cook. Once crisp, use a slotted spoon to drain on paper towels and set aside. Reserve about 3-4 Tbsp of the bacon fat in the pot and discard the rest.
• Lower the heat to medium and add the onions. Cook about 3-5 minutes or until soft and fragrant.
• Add the garlic and cook another minute until soft and fragrant. Add the potatoes and toss to coat. Sprinkle the tapioca flour over the potatoes and stir to coat. Add in the broth, coconut milk, salt, pepper, and nutritional yeast. Stir to combine everything well.
• Bring the mixture to a boil over medium high heat and cook until potatoes are fork tender - about 10-12 minutes. Lower the heat to medium low.
• Now you will blend half of the soup mixture one of two ways. First - If you have an immersion blender, remove half of the soup to another pot and puree only one half of the soup (it doesn't matter which half you puree)
• Second - if you're using a regular blender. Carefully transfer half of the soup to the blender (using a ladle works best) and puree until smooth.
• Combine the pureed soup with the chunky half and stir well. If you decide you want the soup creamier with fewer chunks of potato, you can puree another batch of soup.
• Add 3/4 of the bacon to the soup and allow it to simmer for a few minutes. The bacon will make the soup saltier, so don't add any additional salt until you've allowed the flavors to blend. After 5 minutes or so, taste the soup and season with additional sea salt and black pepper, if desired.
• Garnish with plenty of thinly sliced scallions or chives to serve and the remaining bacon. Enjoy! Store leftovers covered in the refrigerate for up to 4 days.
