POTATO HOT DOG SOUP
Don't let the ingredients sway you from at least trying this recipe once!!!! The only really expensive ingredient is the whipping cream. And if you have kids, you're more than likely to have the rest of them. When I first met my husband, his mother gave me this recipe and I made the same face you'll probably make. But it is sooooooo delicious! You can use any kind of potatoes you like but to save time I sometimes use red russet so I can skip the peeling step. All measurements are approximate. This recipe is versatile, use as much or as little as you'd like.

HOT POTATO SOUP
Steps:
- 1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. 2. Pierce potatoes with a fork; bake at 400 degrees for 1 hour or until tender. Cool. Peel potatoes; coarsely mash. Discard skins. 3. Lightly spoon flour into a dry measuring cup; level with a knife. Place flour in a large Dutch oven; gradually add milk, stirring with a whisk until blended. Cook over medium heat until thick and bubbly about 8 minutes. Add mashed potatoes, 3/4 c cheese, salt and pepper, stirring until cheese melts. Remove from heat. 4. Stir in sour cream and 1/2 cup onions. Cook over low heat 10 minutes or until thoroughly heated (do not boil). Sprinkle each serving with cheese, onions, and bacon.
Tips:
- Use a flavorful potato. Russet potatoes are a classic choice for potato soup, but you can also use Yukon Gold or red potatoes. These varieties have a slightly sweeter flavor that can balance out the richness of the soup.
- Don't overcook the potatoes. You want them to be tender, but not mushy. Cook them just until they can be easily pierced with a fork.
- Use a variety of vegetables. In addition to potatoes, you can add other vegetables to your soup, such as carrots, celery, onions, and leeks. This will add flavor and texture to the soup.
- Use a flavorful broth. Chicken broth or vegetable broth is a good base for potato soup. You can also use a combination of the two. If you're using canned broth, be sure to choose a low-sodium variety.
- Add some spices and herbs. Salt and pepper are essential, of course, but you can also add other spices and herbs to taste. Some good options include garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, thyme, and rosemary.
- Don't forget the toppings. Sour cream, chives, and bacon are all classic toppings for potato soup. You can also add shredded cheese, croutons, or even a dollop of pesto.

Potato soup is a comforting and delicious meal that's perfect for a cold day. It's also a great way to use up leftover potatoes.
