Creamy Potato & Bacon Soup (Whole30) image

Got this recipe from http://www.destinationnursery.com/2014/09/18/creamy-potato-bacon-soup-you-would-not-even-know-its-whole-30-approved/

Provided by Mrs. Hughes

Categories     < 60 Mins

Time 50m

Yield 16 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/2 lb bacon
1/2 sweet onion, chopped
3 lbs potatoes, scrubbed, peeled, and quartered (I like to use red potatoes, but white potatoes are good too)
1 tablespoon arrowroot
32 ounces chicken broth
1/4 cup nutritional yeast (optional, but helps give it a cheesy flavor)
1 1/2 cups coconut milk
1 dash salt
1 dash pepper

Steps:

  • 1. Cook bacon in a large saucepan and then remove the bacon to paper towels and leave the grease. I have also cooked the bacon in the microwave in a microwave safe plate lined with paper towels then squeezed the grease out of the paper towels into the pot I cook the soup inches Works fine that way too.
  • 2. Saute the onions in the bacon grease for 4 minutes or until they are tender.
  • 3. Sprinkle with arrowroot starch then cook and stir for about 1 minute.
  • 4. Slowly add chicken broth while stirring.
  • 5. Add the potatoes and bring to a boil.
  • 6. Reduce heat and simmer for 15 to 30 minutes, or until potatoes are very tender.
  • 7. Use a potato masher to mash the potatoes. If you like chunks of potato, don't mash much. If you like it less chunky, mash a lot. If you like it creamier, you can use an immersion blender.
  • 8. Add nutritional yeast and stir.
  • 9. Add coconut milk and stir.
  • 10. Sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste and crumbled bacon.
  • 11. Additional toppings could include green onions, fresh basil, fresh pico de gallo (shredded cheese or sour cream if you're not on Whole30 and tolerate dairy).
