I did make a few alterations, but all in all this recipe was delicious!
I was worried about all the bacon, I thought the bacon flavor might be overwhelimg. But the soup was just delcious. Here are the few changes I made that were really successful!
I cut the bacon into little pieces. Then in a huge stockpot, I cooked the bacon on medium heat. When it was cooked through I added the leeks. When they were thoroughly sauteed and cooked down (5-8 min) I added flour a tablespoon at a time until a majority of the grease from the bacon was absorbed. Next, I added the potatoes and the chicken stock. I simmered it on low till the potatoes were cooked through. I used 2% milk instead of cream, and I let it simmer low until we were ready to eat. I did add, pepper and garlic, but it was delicious without it too.
