Steps:

  • Next add crubled bacon and wild rice (I like to use 2 cans of wild rice but you can buy the boxed kind too and prepare it ahead of time)
  • Add both cans of cream of potato soup, milk, and Velveeta. Stir all ingredients until mixed well.
  • Heat on medium until cheese is melted and everything is blended.
  • Season to taste ( I like to just add pepper since the Velveeta makes it a little salty already)
  • Turn to low and let simmer for a while, stirring frequently.
