Ingredients

  • 1 lb bacon
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 1-2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 4 tbsp flour
  • 1 lb potatoes, peeled and cubed OR 1 package of potato gnocchi
  • 1 large head of broccoli, chopped
  • 2 quarts (8 cups) chicken broth
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1.5 cups (12oz) grated cheddar cheese
  • Chopped chives or scallions
  • salt and pepper to taste

Directions

  1. Cut bacon into small pieces and cook in a large soup pot
  2. Add in onion and garlic, cooking until soft and fragrant
  3. Sprinkle in flour 1 tbsp at a time, stirring to combine
  4. Add broth, and bring to a boil
  5. Add in Potatoes / Gnocchi
    • If using gnocchi add in gnocchi and broccoli at the same time
    • If using cubed potatoes add the broccoli a few minutes before the potatoes are finished
  6. Scoop out some of the broth (about a cup) into a bowl and whisk together with the sour cream. Pour back into the soup
  7. Sprinkle in about a cup of shredded cheese and stir until everything is melted and back up to just bubbling
  8. Sprinkle chives/scallions and cheddar cheese on top to serve

Notes

  • I used 8 cups (2 quarts) of broth for this, if you want to make it a little thicker you can use less.
  • If you don't mix the broth and sour cream in a separate bowl before adding it to the soup the sour cream will curdle and clump. It doesnt taste bad but it looks gross.
