{Loaded} Baked Potato Soup

                                                                 

COME & GET IT! SOUP'S ON!!!!

******************

When we had baked taters left over at a recent Ladies Day at church, I was given a few to bring home.  

With the cooler temps, I didn't have to think twice about what I wanted to make.

This wonderfully warming and tasty soup gets devoured quickly every time I make it. 

Love the sour cream and bacon that add such awesome flavor. 

TAS-TEEEE! 

Feel free to add ham or velveeta to the soup...whatever 'turns your crank' to make this just what your family will love most.
