Ingredients

  • 4 slices Bacon diced
  • Half onion diced
  • 1 carrot peeled and diced
  • 1 celery rib diced
  • 2 garlic cloves minced
  • 3 large potatoes about 2 ¼ lbs Russet or similar, scrubbed and cut into 1/2-inch dice with or without skin
  • 5 cups veggie broth or chicken, homemade or high-quality store-bought
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup Elmhurst Unsweetened Almond Milk can substitute regular milk or cream
Recommended Toppings
  • Bacon
  • green onions sliced

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. In a large soup pot over medium heat cook the diced bacon while stirring until brown and crisp, 3 to 4 minutes.
  2. Add the onion, carrot, and celery to the pot and cook until the onion begins to soften, 2 to 3 minutes.
  3. Add the garlic and cook for another minute being careful not to let it burn.
  4. Add the diced potatoes to the pot along with the broth and salt. Bring to a boil then turn down to a low simmer and cook uncovered until the potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork, 10 to 15 minutes.
  5. Remove a third of the potato chunks (it's okay if some other good stuff comes out with them) and puree remaining soup. I like to use my hand immersion blender for this job. Stir back in the chunks along with the milk or cream until heated through, garnish with green onions and/or more bacon, and serve.
