I adore soups. Warm, comforting, filling and oh so delicious. I mean seriously veggies, meats, dairy – everything in one dish – the perfect bite. AND even better soups are so easy to make! I make soup probably once a week, so I have a ton of soup recipes to change things up often.

So when we decided to celebrate National Soup Month I knew just which soup to share – my one pot Loaded Baked Potato soup! I mean who doesn’t loved loaded baked potato and in soup form? YUM! I’m just a little obsessed with this one!

But let’s face it – anything made with bacon and bacon grease is bound to be good, right? after you cook the bacon you cook the potatoes and the onions in the grease left – YUM! Seriously so good! Then you not only stir in more onions, sour cream, cheese and of course bacon but you can also top each bowl with more to personalize it!

I think this might be my favorite month of “Celebrating Food” so far! Look how AMAZING all these soups look! I can’t wait to try some of them and add them to my rotation. We have a few new food bloggers you won’t want to miss so click over and check out each of their new recipes!

  It will struggle to get to the right thickness with just milk. And I’m personally not a fan of garlic powder, I feel like it has a weird aftertaste vs fresh garlic. BUT that said using it won’t hurt the recipe at all.

I saw on another comment that this feeds your family of 6. Would I be able to freeze some of this in freezer safe bags? We are a family of 3, and we both work 50+ hours a week, so anything that I can make a lot of and freeze for a day when No one wants to cook is perfect.

  dairy based soups don’t freeze well. You can freeze it, but it changes the texture as the dairy crystallizes during freezing and it will never be the same again. It will stay good in the fridge for at least a week (because bacon lasts longer than most meats I’d still eat it up to like a week and a half, it might separate a little, just stir it back together as you reheat) and I’d stick with that personally. Also make sure to add a little extra milk when you reheat to keep it from being too thick.

Is it ok to use the shredded cheese in the ziplock bag from the store? I used it when I tried to make cheddar broccoli soup but it didn’t melt right and stayed all stringy and clumped up

  I recommend using freshly shredded cheese. They coat the store pre-shredded cheese to keep it from sticking, which also keeps it from melting smoothly. It also has a weaker flavor so you end up having to add more to get the right flavor.
