Baked Potato Soup

Tonight I wanted to try a new recipe Baked Potato Soup.  It sounded wonderful, baked potatoes, milk, sour cream, green onions, sharp Cheddar cheese, salt, pepper and a little flour.  I baked four large Idaho potatoes and since I had the oven on….I also baked a chocolate cake.

The soup tasted so very good but …it was very thick and even though it only had 380 calories per 1 ½ cup serving it just felt too heavy.  Luckily, I saved the potato skins and on Wednesday, I’ll put the leftover potato mixture (just too thick to call soup) back into the potato skins and garnish with some fresh grated sharp Cheddar cheese, bacon, green onions and sour cream and we will enjoy them as an appetizer. 
Do you have a good baked potato soup recipe?  I’d love to hear from you.
