Ingredients
6 yukon gold potatoes30 oz chicken broth1 tbsp garlic1/2 tsp salt1/2 tsp pepper1/3 cup flour1 cup 2% milk1-2oz shredded sharp cheddar cheese6 slices bacon
Directions
Makes 4-6 servings (depending upon how big your bowl is -- I calculated nutrition info for 4 servings)

1. Cut potatoes into small bite size pieces, put in pot and cover with just enough water. Bring to boil. Reduce heat, cover and simmer 10-15 min until potatoes are tender. Drain. Reserve 1 cup potatoes. In small bowl, mash reserved potatoes with fork, return to pot.

2. Stir in broth, garlic, salt and pepper. Heat to boiling. Reduce heat to medium; cook uncovered for 2 minutes.

3. In small bowl, stir flour into milk with whisk until well mixed. Add milk, mixture to potato mixture stirring constantly. Cook over medium heat, stirring frequently until thickened.

4.Top with crumbled bacon, shredded cheese and scallions if desired... The longer you simmer at the end, the thicker it becomes.

YUMMY. Enjoy!
