Bacon and Potato Soup is one of the Stay at Home Mum fans’ favourite winter warmer soup!
It is thick and hearty, fit to warm your belly on a cold night. Aside from having two of our favourite things (bacon and potatoes), bacon and potato soup freezes really well.
When you make bacon and potato soup, we suggest you make a huge batch so you always have some on hand!
