Baked Potato Soup

So this may just be one of my favorite recipes that I have made in a long time. If I were you I would definitely try it. It's sort of amazing. I'm not sure if I stuck exactly to the recipe with the measurements, but it turned out good. 

12 slices bacon

2/3 cup margarine ( I actually used butter and the bacon grease from the bacon, I never said this was the healthiest recipe

2/3 cup flour

7 cups milk

4 large baked potatoes, peeled and cubed ( I just boiled the potatoes)

4 green onions, chopped

1 1/4 cups shredded cheddar cheese

1 cup sour cream

1 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon pepper

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 over, melt the margarine over medium heat. Whisk in flour until smooth. gradually stir in milk, whisking constantly until thickened. Stir in potatoes and onions and 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.
