2 garlic cloves, minced
3 ¹⁄₂ cups chicken stock

directions

In a big soup pot over medium heat, cook the bacon until the fat renders, about 3 minutes.
Add in the onion and garlic; stir/saute in the bacon drippings until tender and the bacon is crisp, about 5 minutes longer.
Add all the remaining ingredients except the parmesan.
Decrease heat to low and simmer, uncovered, until the flavors are blended, 10-15 minutes.

This soup is so incredibly easy and delicious. I tweaked it a little by using turkey bacon, fat free chicken broth, and omitting the extra salt. Big flavor for little effort. Thanks for sharing the recipe :)
