Cheap and Easy Family Recipes

Potatoes are nutritious, having as much potassium as bananas and surprisingly quite a bit of vitamin C. Potatoes are cheap too making them a good choice for a cheapskate recipe. I have prepared this recipe many times and everyone in my family loves it. It is great as a leftover too and will keep in the fridge for a week. The recipe comes from a site called Pastrywiz.com

BAKED POTATO SOUP

Ingredients

4 large Potatoes
2/3 cup Butter
2/3 cup Flour
1 and 1/2 qt Milk
Salt and Pepper
4 Green onions
1 cup Sour cream
2 cups Crisp-cooked bacon
-crumbled
5 oz Grated cheddar cheese

Instructions:
Heat oven to 350 degrees and bake the potatoes until for tender. Melt
butter in a medium saucepan. Slowly blend in flour with a wire whisk
until thoroughly blended. Gradually add milk to the butter-flour
mixture, whisking constantly. Whisk in salt and pepper and simmer
over low heat, stirring constantly. Cut potatoes in half, scoop out
the meat and set aside. Chop half the potato peels and discard the
remainder. When milk mixture is very hot, whisk in potato. Add green
onion and potato peels. Whisk well, add sour cream and crumbled
bacon. Heat thoroughly. Add cheese a little at a time until it is all
melted in. Serve with crusty French Bread and fresh butter.
