Ingredients:

  • 6 medium potatoes, peeled and cubed
  • 6 slices of bacon, chopped
  • 1 medium onion, chopped
  • 3 cloves of garlic, minced
  • 4 cups of chicken broth
  • 2 cups of shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 cup of heavy cream
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Chives for garnish

Instructions:

  1. In a large pot, cook the bacon over medium heat until crispy. Remove the bacon and set it aside, leaving the bacon fat in the pot.
  2. In the same pot, sauté the onion and garlic until they’re soft and fragrant.
  3. Add the potatoes to the pot and pour in the chicken broth. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat and let it simmer until the potatoes are tender.

  5. Stir in the heavy cream and shredded cheddar cheese. Keep stirring until the cheese is fully melted.
  6. Season the soup with salt and pepper to taste.
