Baked Potato Soup & Tips {linky}
Earlier this year, I made Paula Deen's Baked Potato Soup. It is my FAVORITE soup recipe to date. With the cold weather recently, I decided to make it again. And then I also took it to a potluck for a bible study I'm in. Its always a huge hit. HOWEVER, the hardest thing I have found is actually taking the picture. How do you take a picture of a bowl of soup? For some reason this is a huge challenge for me.
Sure, they have significantly improved since last shot, but still....not where I want to be.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
RECIPE:
8 slices hickory smoked bacon
1 onion, diced
1/2 cup flour
3 (14.5 ounce) cans chicken broth
5 potatoes, baked, peeled and diced
1 teaspoon dried parsley flakes
2 cups half & half
1 cup sharp cheddar cheese, grated
1 cup sour cream
salt & pepper to taste (optional)
In a duth oven, cook bacon until crisp; remove and crumble, reserve drippings.
Cook onion in bacon drippings until tender; stir in flour and cook for one minute, stirring constantly. Gradually add chicken broth; cook, stirring constantly until thickened and bubbly. Put in the diced potatoes, parsley, bacon and half & half; cook for 10 minutes. Stir in cheese and sour cream.
Garnish with cheese, bacon and sour cream.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
As humans, asking for help can be the hardest thing EVER for us to do....but I'm asking you now...HELP! Do you have any tips and tricks?
Link up your soup recipes and show me how you've taken your pictures!

PMM #1 {{{Hop & linky}}}
**These can be FUN MEALS or INDIVIDUAL dishes to add on the linky! And it doesn't have to be like $3 cheap--just a dish that is fairly inexpensive!**
So this is something I've decided to start on my blog. PENNY-MEAL MONDAY. Don't you even have that night when its the day before pay-day, and there is nothing to cook? I always have these meals on hand in case that happens. I always have the ingredients. And if I don't, I can scrape up money from the couch cushions and get. Hence the name: Penny Meals.
~~I'm looking for some co-hosts for this linky next week. If interested, please leave comment so I can get in touch with you!~~
Here is one of my favorites. I have many, so please check back next week for another one! Who knows when you might need it to save the day.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Pasta Roni: (10/$10 sale) = $1.00
Can veggie: $0.75 [corn is just what I had tonight, but any family fav veg will work!]
Polish Kielbasa Sausage: (huge value pack was $6, split into normal portions) = $1.50
TOTAL: $3.25 for a family of 4 (2 adults and 2 children)
How do I make this?
Pasta: according to directions (5 minutes)
Sausage: Cut in sections, then in half. Spread BBQ sauce over it and cook on grill, or grill pan.
Veggie: Drain, dab with butter and garlic salt and pop into microwave for 2 minutes.
[variations: mac-n-cheese instead of pasta]
Some might think this is retarded, but it has saved me so many times. And my kids gobble this up like their life depends on it.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
So please share you penny-meal recipe with me and everyone else!
RULES:
1. Grab my button and put it on you blog (optional--but would be really nice)
2. Be a follow of me via GFC
3. Link up your penny-meals, as many as you would like!
4. Please no giveaways or other linkys
5. This linky opens up May 22nd, 6pm central times and close May 24th, midnight central time.
6. Jump around and leave comments on others linked up.
7. I'll choose my favorite and share them (with your blog) the following week.

Calling all Strawberries! **LINKY**
IN NEED OF STRAWBERRY RECIPES!
At the commissary, the strawberries were on for 99 cents a pack--and I got a bunch of packs! But now what do I do?? It would be easy for me to just start googleing or food blog search it...but I thought this would be a great opportunity for my wonderful viewers to get their input!
Please make sure you are a follower via GFC and grab my button as you share as pass on this linky (but not necessary if you don't want to)! Enter as many times as you would like, as long as you don't repeat the recipe. This linky will close on May 1st (Sunday)--I want to be able to use the recipes before the strawberries go bad =) I will show my favorites and feature the recipes and the blog it came from when I try it!
Link away! Please pass the word around!
