Loaded Baked Potato Soup

8 slices of bacon
1 small onion
2 cloves garlic
5-6 large potatoes - peeled and diced
2 C Chicken Broth
3/4 C butter
3/4 C flour
1 C heavy cream
5 C milk
1-2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp pepper
2 C shredded cheddar cheese
1 bunch green onions
1/2 C sour cream

In a large pot cook the bacon - when it's done pull it out, and cut into strips.
Add the butter to the pot with the bacon grease and melt it. Add the onion, garlic and potatoes and cook slightly. Add the flour, salt and pepper and stir - cooking the flour slightly. Add the chicken broth, milk and cream and bring to a boil
Turn the heat down and simmer until the potatoes are cooked through. Add the cheese and stir. Add the sour cream, bacon and the green onions and stir. Serve with more cheese, bacon and green onions on top.

*I usually use already baked potatoes w/ the skin on & dice them. I also use already cooked bacon bits & butter instead of the bacon grease to speed things up.
