A great, very flavorful soup for all year round.
Ingredients
Directions
- Cook bacon until crisp. Remove and drain on paper towels.
- Chop all the vegetables.
- Add olive oil to the pan and add onion, carrot and celery as they are cut up. Sauté until onion is soft but not brown, about 3 to 4 minutes.
- Stir in chicken broth, potatoes and pepper. Bring to boil, reduce heat and simmer covered until potatoes are tender, about 10 to15 minutes.
- Stir in cheese and heat until just melted - do not boil. Chop bacon and add to soup.
- Adjust seasoning to taste by adding salt if desired. Serve at once.

FYI: for those who feel they cant eat this because of the potato, substitute potato with cauliflower. (Cauliflower is a great way to get the potato feel without the potato carbs.)

Even my three and four year old enjoyed this soup. I added a little garlic salt and black pepper for flavor and about 1/2 cup of fat free milk to make my husband think he was getting a creamy soup. We garnished with chopped green onions. Next time I make this, I'll use the cheese and bacon as a garnish.

In response to "xpectin". To make the soup creamy just use an immersion hand blender then add the bacon afterwards. I make various different types of vegetable soups this way. No fat needed. I would omit the oil and use cooking spray to cut the fat as well. Then have the cheese and bacon as an option for garnish instead. I have made something very similar to this using leeks instead of regular onions. It's great. You can please everyone.

I loved this recipe, but my picky daughters and husband didn't - they wanted a creamy soup which is a no go for WW. Definitely worth giving a try, though!
