Big Pot of Loaded Bake Potato Soup

Loaded Bake Potato soup is a favorite at our house.  I've been making this for over 20 years.  When it gets cold outside this is one of the first go to meals. 

A friend of mine brought me fresh potatoes from Idaho from her parents farm. Oh, these are the BEST potatoes. Thank you Kathy from bringing me some of these beauties this year!

Fresh Idaho spuds.

Chicken Broth, Peeled Potatoes, and pepper.

Caramelized onions and bacon. 

Add them to the pot.

I love Tillamook Products.  They are the best.  This light sour cream taste like the regular stuff.  Add a cup full to the pot.  Make sure this is off the heat when you add.  You don't want it to curdle.

Oh, yum.  add some grated cheddar cheese and serve!
