BAKED POTATO SOUP

Baked potato soup image

This satisfying soup replicates the great flavor of a baked potato that's been topped with all of the works-except we've used healthier toppings like turkey bacon, reduced-fat sour cream, reduced-fat shredded cheese, and raw scallions. It's still a super-filling dream come true in a bowl. You'll find yourself reaching for this recipe whenever you want to warm up after a long winter day. The best part is you can roast the garlic and potatoes directly on the oven rack; there's no need to wash a baking sheet. If you don't have a potato masher, simply use a large spoon, but keep in mind it may take just a little longer.

Number Of Ingredients 10

Ingredients

1 bulb(s) Garlic clove(s) large, 1/4-inch-slice cut off top
3 pound(s) Uncooked potato(es) rinsed, pierced with a fork (about 6 large baking potatoes)
6 slice(s) Uncooked turkey bacon
4 cup(s) Reduced-sodium chicken broth
1.5 Tbsp Fresh thyme fresh, chopped
0.5 tsp Table salt
0.25 tsp Black pepper freshly ground
6 Tbsp Reduced-fat sour cream
6 Tbsp Weight Watchers Reduced-fat Mexican style shredded cheese
6 Tbsp Uncooked scallion(s) sliced

Steps:

Preheat oven to 400ºF. Wrap entire garlic bulb tightly in foil; place garlic and potatoes in oven. (You do not need to put them on a pan; they can go right on an oven rack.)
Bake garlic until soft when squeezed, about 45 minutes; remove from oven and let cool. Continue baking potatoes until tender when pierced, about 15 minutes more; let potatoes stand until cool enough to handle.
Meanwhile, cook bacon in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until browned, about 6 minutes. Place bacon on paper towels to drain off any fat; chop bacon.
Unwrap garlic and squeeze pulp from bulb with hands into a large saucepan. Peel potatoes and add to saucepan; mash with a potato masher until smooth. Gradually stir in broth, thyme, salt and pepper until blended; place saucepan over medium heat and cook until hot, stirring occasionally, about 5 to 10 minutes.
Spoon about 1 1/3 cups of soup into each of 6 soup bowls. Top each with 1 tablespoon of sour cream, 1 tablespoon of cheese, 1 rounded tablespoon of bacon and 1 tablespoon of scallions. Grind fresh pepper over top if desired.

Add vegetables: Vegetables will add flavor and nutrients to your soup. You can add any vegetables you like, such as carrots, celery, onions, or leeks.
Use a good quality broth: The broth is the base of your soup, so it's important to use a good one. Look for a broth that is low in sodium and has a rich flavor.
Season to taste: Once your soup is cooked, taste it and adjust the seasonings as needed. You may want to add more salt, pepper, or herbs.
