BEST EVER POTATO SOUP

Best Ever Potato Soup image

You'll be surprised at the taste of this rich and cheesy easy potato soup. It really is the best potato soup recipe, ever. I came up with it after enjoying baked potato soup at one of our favorite restaurants. I added bacon, and we think that makes it even better. -Coleen Morrissey, Sweet Valley, Pennsylvania

FEEL-GOOD WINTER SOUP

The veggies listed are only suggestions - the idea is to use up what you have on hand. You could even throw in some salad greens that are past their prime. Do not substitute powdered ginger for the fresh ginger root! The fresh ginger, garlic and onion are good for you.
