Potato Potato ... I Think That Only Works When You Say It ...

Photography is one of my favorite hobbies. In recent times I have been taking many pictures of my son and family (by many I mean millions). It has been a while since I have done a food shoot and I thought now was as good a time as ever. Winter is coming to an end, I think, and soups will probably not be on the menu for much longer so here is a super easy and delicious soup that anyone can make.

  To begin with there should be a whole pound of thick sliced bacon being prepared while three potatoes, and a small onion are peeled and chopped. A small bunch of green onions are also to be chopped however the white portion should just be added to the other onion.


Once the bacon is cooked and chopped the potatoes and onions should just go right into the pan the bacon came out of. There is no need to drain the pan, that is only more flavor! Season with whatever you like, personally I like to use McCormak Steak Seasoning. 

 While that is heating up and the potatoes are softening, 3 cups of chicken broth and 1 quart of heavy cream should be heating up.


Once the potatoes are softened enough they are added to the broth and blended smooth. This is where an immersion blender comes in handy, if you do not own one you should fix that. Once all the chunks are gone the bacon is added.


Garnish with the green onion tips and a bit of shredded cheese and consume. This is quickly becoming one of my favorite dishes and it is so simple to make.


Since I am still technically a "new dad" no blog post would be complete without another baby pic. So here it is, my toughest critic even likes this soup!
