Baked Potato Soup & Beer Bread Recipes

These are recipes that I was given after we received this as a dinner gift after one of our babies was born from our friend Kim. I don't make it often, but when I do, it is a hit! A perfect meal for a cold winter night.

Baked Potato Soup
4 baked potatoes
3-4 slices bacon, cooked and chopped
1/2 cup celery, chopped
1/2 cup green onions with tops, thinly sliced
16 oz chicken broth
1 1/2 cup milk
1 clove garlic, minced
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp pepper
1 cup sour cream

Topping= shredded cheddar cheese

Cook and coarsely mash potatoes. Transfer to a stock pot (I microwaved mine and mashed them in the pot). Add broth, milk, celery, onions, garlic, salt and pepper. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer 10 minutes. Stir in sour cream and bacon. Garnish servings with shredded cheese. Delish!

Beer Bread
Mix: 3 cups flour
3 3/4 tsp baking powder
3/8 tsp salt

Stir in: 1/2 cup sugar
12 oz. beer (light is best)

Grease loaf pan. Pour batter into pan and bake at 350 degrees for 45 minutes. Yum!
