YUM! I just made this soup today, husband said this is the best soup he probably ever had! Way better than O.G.'s.More rustic and flavorful. I used boullon amount as in recipe but it didn't cover the potatoes and I thought they wouldn't cook so I added about 2-3 cups of homemade chicken stock. It took a lot more than 15 min for the potatoes to cook more like 30 min (I used 3 potatoes).Used 3 slices of chopped pepper bacon instead. I would chop up the bacon a little more next time. I have always wanted to use kale, it just soaked up that bacon flavor. Any veggie that taste like bacon is my kind of veggie!Added more cream because of the extra stock, I added total about a cup. Loved it!
