This comforting soup has all the flavors of a loaded baked potato, but in a soup form!
Some of you may already be familiar with this soup, if that is the case consider yourself blessed. If you have never heard of it I don't know how this soup ever got passed you. This is my all time favorite soup recipe. Baked potato soup really has it all and it’s loaded!!!! loaded with cream, cheese, sour cream, bacon, and butter of course.
Just like a real baked potato, now don't let all that butter and cream steer you away. My thoughts are everything is good in moderation. As long as you don't eat the entire pot then I think you will be OK.
This soup is perfect for all the chilly days yet to come. I served my soup with a simple cheesy pull apart bread (recipe included) but any french bread or roll will do.
This recipe is best served immediately after you add the sour cream. I know once you try this recipe you will love it. OK now I am just tickled pink about what I'm going to tell you next.

We try to incorporate fiber when possible. We eat fiber type cereal every morning...raisin bran or oatmeal usually. I buy Double Fiber bread for our lunches. I have been eating the Progresso High Fiber vegetable soup for lunch. It's delicious and very few calories!
As unglamorous as it sounds, incorporating fiber makes you feel better!
I also love this progesso soup set!
Have a great day! Stay warm!
The soup looks wonderful. I try to add more fiber by serving oatmeal two or three times a week. When I make veggie soup I add either barley or lentils. I read labels to check fiber content in everything that I buy.Keep fruit on the counter.

I incorporate fiber into the diet around here by grinding my own wheat flour that I use for whole wheat bread. Nothing like freshly ground wheat. You gotta love it!
Thanks,

We incorporate more fiber by eating whole grain bread and pasta products and lots of servings of fresh fruits and veggies everyday.

I don't do as well with incorporating fiber as I should. Broccoli is our favorite vegetable, so I try to cook that most often. I also try to use a mixture of whole wheat and white flours in my baked goods and actually love using whole wheat pasta.
Thanks for another great recipe...and thanks for the chance!
I feel better when I eat a little healthier!!

To get extra fiber in my day, I eat alot more fresh fruits and veggies. Sometimes I will even fix a raw veggie and fruit plate for our supper. I also grind my own wheat and bake my own bread so that it is whole wheat. We have oat groats from the crockpot alot and add fresh fruit to it as well.
I try to buy whole wheat/multigrain pasta...we actually think it's even better then the regular kind. I also try to use whole wheat flour for breads and rolls.

As for adding fiber, I use whole wheat pasta and always serve veggies with lunch and diner. My kids love oatmeal so they eat that almost every for breakfast. I also keep a bowl of fruit on the counter.

I'm eating a lot more raw fruits and vegetables to increase my daily fiber.

I love Strawberries & Cream, Cream Of Wheat and that is my source of fiber!

Thanks for sharing the recipe!
As far as the fiber goes, we eat lots of raw veggies and fruits for snacks and I always by whole grain breads and pastas.
We love whole wheat bread on anything we can find. HB & hot dog buns are regulars at our house.
@Anonymous: I would say this recipe makes about 4-5 servings. You would need to double the recipe to feed 7.
I baked the potatoes the day before and they still worked good for the soup, just had to chop up the "meat" a little.
I also fried the bacon that morning with breakfast bacon. I love cutting the bacon with my kitchen shears then frying it. It cooks great and doesn't need to be chopped or crumbled later.
Looking forward to trying more of your recipes!
Just the two of us, so I cut the recipe in half. I'm a Weight Watcher so used skim milk, light sour cream and 2% cheese....delicious. Thanks Tina for another great recipe.
