Loaded Baked Potato Soup

Submitted by kristylee1979

"This soup tastes just like the baked potato soup they serve at Bob Evans. It goes great with a salad and some buttermilk biscuits. I use 2 packages of Oscar Mayer microwaveable bacon instead of frying regular bacon and it is just as good."

This turned out super delish ~ I omitted the flour and added some Velveeta Queso Blanco that made it really creamy and thick. Thank you for the recipe.
