Baked Potato Soup

4 baked potatoes
2/3 c butter
2/3 c flour
6 c milk
3/4 tsp salt
1/2 tsp pepper
4 green onions chopped
12 slices bacon, fried and crumbled
2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
1 c sour cream

1. Cut potatoes in half and scoop out pulp. Mash. (Sometimes I do the lazy version and just leave the peel on and mash.
2. Melt butter in large kettle. Add flour. Gradually stir in milk. Continue to stir until smooth, thickened and bubbly.
3. Stir in everything but sour cream. Cook until heated, then add sour cream.


Dinner this week was so good. We loved it all. I am really enjoying doing this with you two. Do you guys like to grill? During the summer, we love to marinate meat and then just throw it on the grill. I was wondering if those times, I could just bring it over and let you grill. If not thats ok. I don't grill, I let Adam to that, but since he gets home late, I don't think you want to wait till then.

Best ever Alfredo sauce

This is the yummiest alfredo I've had!! I got the recipe from a boy that turned out to be nothing but trouble... but it was worth it for this recipe!

This is mostly selfish....

Hi. Danette just dropped off the potato soup and I snuck a taste before dinner..... and I MUST have the recipe! Sooo, I was thinking. How would you ladies feel about posting the recipe for what you're bringing for dinner? That way, we can have the recipes ourselves and make them whenever we want. Of course you don't HAVE to. But I just thought if we want to, here's a blog to post them on. It's www.foodswapgirls.blogspot.com. I don't have Mandi's e-mail yet so I'll need to get that and send her an invite before we are fully set up. And if you girls know of anyone else who would want to be on, just let me know and I'll pop them on. Thanks!
