One of my favorite comfort foods is potato soup.  I love to curl up on a cold day with a hot bowl topped with cheese.  Try this recipe:

Homemade Potato Soup

• Cut up 6-8 large potatoes
• ½ tsp. oil
• 3 cups milk or half-n-half
• ¼ cup bacon cut in small pieces
• 1 medium onion, chopped
• 3 Tbsp. flour
• Salt and pepper to taste

• Add the oil to water and cook potatoes until tender
• Cook the potatoes down to approximately 1 cup of liquid
• Stir in 3 cups of milk or half-n-half
• Whisk in the 3 Tbsp. flour to thicken (adjust the flour for desired consistency)
• Sauté the onions and add to the soup with the bacon
• Salt and pepper to taste

This is the perfect soup to add to a bread bowl and don’t forget to top it with your favorite cheese.
