I know it’s only August, but it feels like fall outside and that means its soup season. My favorite season! One of our family’s favorite recipes is this amazing Loaded Baked Potato Soup.
Even my youngest daughter asks for seconds and she normally hates soup of any kind.
So, if you’re looking for a quick, easy dinner for your family…even the picky eaters…then try out this soup. You’re going to love it.
It tastes like comfort and fall all wrapped up in one big soup bowl.
Do you want to make dinner fancy? Pick up a few round loaves of bread at the grocery store and cut out the insides.
Ladle Loaded Baked Potato Soup into the bread bowls and serve instead of using soup bowls.
