Creamy Smoked Baked Potato Soup W/QVIEW

[ronp]

I took the advice from here to try this the other day on another thread.

I made a small batch yesterday to see and this what I came up with.





I had 3 small smoked potatos waiting. Chucnked up with skin on, for more flavor.



1 Carrot and about 1/4 onion sauteeing till they were sweated out.



Some smoked pork.



I made 4 cups chicken stock, added some dry milk, (no scalding easy to use). I added some instant mashed potatoes for thickening WHOA , too many so I had to add more water and milk and some Smart Balance spread for flavor.

Carol gave it a thumbs up, so that's all that matters.

Thx for watching,
Ron

Ron, very nice soup ya made yerself there. I've done it a few times with smoked potatos and hams. mostly on the stove though. The potato flakes are a must in my opinion for thickening the soup gives it that extra ooompf.

Points on the creativity. WTG

I love soup like this and will have to try it with smoked potatoes. I use bacon and add shredded cheddar cheese to mine as well.
