Potato Soup?

Does anyone have a recipe for Potato Soup that resembles Bennigans? I've tried a few w/no luck. Had first batch of clam chowder recently as well. I can(bottle) pickled beets, 'chili'(tomatoes-peppers-onions), green tomato jelly, make great noodles, piggies, pierogies, & other dishes if anyone needs suggestions from a sweeter/less spice side of the pallette.

Bennigans starts with a bucket of warbles.......Don't guess you want the rest of the recipe?

Im fresh out of warble juice. Guess Ill have to wait to make it. Get my dog loaded up this summer & pop em right into the pot!

I like Potato soup. My favorite potato soup is Baked potato soup.
It's very simple to made Baked potato soup.
Materials for Baked potato soup:
12 slices bacon
2/3 cup margarine
2/3 cup all-purpose flour
7 cups milk
4 large baked potatoes, peeled and cubed
4 green onions, chopped
1 1/4 cups shredded Cheddar cheese
1 cup sour cream
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground black pepper

Method for made Baked potato soup
1) Place bacon in a large, deep skillet. Cook over medium heat until browned. Drain, crumble, and set aside.
2) In a stock pot or Dutch oven, melt the margarine over medium heat. Whisk in flour until smooth. Gradually stir in milk, whisking constantly until thickened. Stir in potatoes and onions. Bring to a boil, stirring frequently.
3) Reduce heat, and simmer 10 minutes. Mix in bacon, cheese, sour cream, salt, and pepper. Continue cooking, stirring frequently, until cheese is melted.

Me, too! In fact it’s on the menu for tonight. I’m going to try Denny’s recipe tonight but here's my recipe:

Crumbled Bacon (I use the pre-cooked and crumbled variety so I don't have to deal with the mess.)
2/3 cup margarine or butter
2/3 cup all-purpose flour
8 cups milk
4 large baked potatoes, peeled or not, smashed - set aside.
1 bunch green onions, chopped
1 1/4 cups shredded Cheddar cheese
1 teaspoon dill weed
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground black pepper

In a stock pot or Dutch oven, melt the margarine over medium heat; add the chopped onions. Add salt, pepper and dill to the flour. Blend the flour/spice mixture into the margarine/butter until smooth. Gradually stir in milk, stirring constantly until thickened. It should have a chowder texture to it. Stir in potatoes and half the cheese. Bring to an almost boil, stirring frequently.
Reduce heat, and simmer 10 minutes. Serve with bacon and remaining cheese on the side.

Enjoy, It's a meal in itself; a baked potato soup will really fill you up for not so much cash. This receipe feeds 5 with leftovers for lunch the next day. Take care, Lisa

hello!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Both of those posted recipes look worth trying to me, after we run through all of these Thanksgiving leftovers.

What’s a Bennigans?

You were looking for a soup recipe? If not an easy way to bake a thouroughly washed potato in the microwave is to wrap it in plastic wrap (that is if you aren't worried about the chemicals in the plastic) Do 5 minutes & check w/a fork for tenderness add a minute or two until you achieve your goal

yes I think you should try this one!

Ingredients:

6 slice(s) bacon, cut into 1-inch pieces
3 pound(s) (about 5 large) russet potatoes
3 1/2 teaspoon(s) salt
1 cup(s) sour cream
1/4 pound(s) (1 stick) butter
2 2/3 cup(s) whole milk
1/2 teaspoon(s) black pepper
4 scallions, thinly sliced
3/4 cup(s) shredded sharp Cheddar cheese

Complete method:

Cook the bacon pieces over medium heat in a medium skillet until crisp. Transfer bacon to paper toweling to drain and set aside. Peel, rinse, and cut the potatoes into thirds. Place them in a large pot with water to cover, add 2 teaspoons salt, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to a simmer and cook until the potatoes are very soft -- about 45 minutes. Drain the potatoes, discarding the water, and return them to the pot. Mash them with a potato masher until smooth. Add the sour cream and butter and stir until melted. Add the milk, pepper, and remaining salt and bring the soup back to a simmer. Divide among 8 bowls and serve the soup hot, garnished with scallions, cheese, and bacon.
