I started off with "Cheesy Potato Soup" as requested by Heather. (Hi Heather!) I chose it to start of the week because it happened to be the most convenient because we had most of the ingredients already in house.
"Cheesy Potato Soup" (6 quart pot)
~6 medium potatoes, peeled and chopped
~2 1/2 cups water
~1/2 cup chopped onion
~2 chicken bouillon cubes
~1/4 t pepper
~9 slices American cheese, shredded
~1 12oz can evaporated milk
~2 t bacon pieces
~2 t green onions
Combine potatoes, water, onion, bouillon, and pepper in crock pot.
Cover and cook on low for 9 hours.
Stir in cheese and milk.
Cover and cook on low for 1 hour.
Top each serving with bacon and green onions.
6 servings.
I read through the comments on the Mixing Bowl's website and saw that of the 7 on there, only one person had actually made it. The crocker said that she screwed it up somehow and it ended up with a glue-like consistency. She blamed the cheese and said that she's decrease it and make other adjustments when she made it again. It had me a little worried and I briefly considered following her suggestions. Briefly. I ended up following the original recipe EXACTLY and this in no way looked (or tasted) like glue.
This was AMAZING. Creamy. Cheesy. Potato-y. Yum. It's a great comfort soup. I'd definitely make this again. I don't what the other crocker did to mess it up because it was delicious. Thanks Heather!
If I ever die, I'm replacing my blood with this in the hopes that somebody else will eat me and be nourished. If there were more of it, I may have actually eaten enough to succeed in doing that.
