Homemade Loaded Potato Soup is Comfort Food!

I can’t think of a more comforting meal than a piping hot bowl of soup.

Soup is one of those comfort foods that everyone loves.

Even the pickiest of eaters will dig into a bowl of soup when it is cold outside.

I have great memories of eating soup during the cold winters when I was a child. Back then the soup wasn’t as good and came out of a can.

Homemade soup is so much better. Cooked in a crock pot dinner pretty much cooks itself.

Well, if we weren’t eating soup out of a can we were eating homemade split pea soup.

It was one of my favorite soup recipes when I was a kid.

Now that I think of it I ate so many types of foods when I was a kid that most kids these days would turn their nose up at.

One of these days I am going to have to make a list of all the foods I ate a child that seems gross to my kids but was the meals of my childhood.
