8 slices bacon
1 cup diced yellow onions
2/3 cup flour
6 cups heated chicken stock
4 cups diced, peeled cooked potatoes
2 cups heavy cream
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
1 1/2 teaspoon granulated garlic
1 1/2 teaspoon dried basil

1 1/2 teaspoon hot sauce
1 1/2 teaspoon coarse black pepper
1 cup grated Cheddar cheese

directions
Heat a large saucepan or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the bacon slices and cook, turning as needed, until crisp.
Remove the bacon to paper toweling to drain.
Meanwhile, add the onions to the drippings in the pan. Cook, stirring frequently, over medium-high heat until the onions are soft.
Stir the flour into the onions and cook, stirring constantly, for 3-5 minutes or until the mixture just begins to brown.
While stirring, slowly add the chicken stock. Cook, stirring constantly, until the liquid thickens.
Reduce the heat to a low simmer. Add the potatoes, cream, parsley, garlic, basil, salt, hot sauce, and black pepper. Coarsely chop the bacon and add to the soup.
Heat the soup on a low simmer for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Stir in the cheese and green onions.
Cook, stirring until the cheese melts. Ladle into individual serving bowls and garnish with additional chopped bacon, grated cheese, and parsley, if desired.

This recipe is nearly perfect. The only thing to change in this particular recipe is to omit the salt! Or at the very least taste it BEFORE salting! Bacon is salty, bacon fat is salty and cheddar is salty.

Trippled this for a church soup supper to serve 24. Everyone loved it.

I used cubed ham instead of bacon. Just as good. Added diced Carrot and celery as well. Then put in the crockpot - Dinner is served!

This was just the yummiest thing this family of five has tasted. I followed the recipe, except I omitted the green onions. It was just delicious. My very pick 3 year old had two bowls! Thanks for a great sunday night dinner. I paired this meal with a baby spinach salad and cdkitchen's red lobster biscuit recipe.

I would just like to say that yes it is great, but it takes longer than 30 minutes to make. Because it takes longer than 30 minutes to bake a potato. that being said it only takes 30 minutes after the potatoes are finished baking.
