We have completely worn ourselves out this week. I have one sick little girl to show for it and fear I am not far behind her.
On a day like this, the only thing that sounds good to me is soup, especially this soup.
I made it a few weeks ago, and am still thinking about how good it was. You can't go wrong with a recipe that combines my four favorite food groups, cream, butter, bacon and wine. The only alteration I make is skipping the last step where you mix it up in the blender. I like to keep my potatoes in nice chunks. (And, by the time it is done I am usually too impatient, and just want to get eating.)
Enjoy!

A beautiful variation of one of my favorite foods. Gorgeous photos, too! I tried it tonight and it truly is a feast for the tastebuds! My only advice: hold of on the salt until the very end, I found I didn't need the 1.5 tsp because the bacon and chicken stock made it salty enough. Thanks!
I hope you're all feeling better!
This is such a gorgeous, comforting post. Thanks...
Thanks for the recipe. Food Network should use your photos!
