Aunt Teenie’s version of potato soup, this is one of those comfort food dishes great when the winter wind is howling outside and you need to warm yourself from the inside out.

8 slices bacon, cooked and diced
4 medium potatoes, diced
1 large onion, diced
1/2 cup celery, diced
1 Tablespoons minced parsley
1 1/4 cup water
3 cups milk
1 Tablespoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper

Combine diced vegetables and water. Cover and simmer 45 minutes or until done. Rice vegetables or put through a coarse sieve, and return to the water in which they were cooked. Add milk, salt and pepper, and reheat. Cook bacon until crisp. Just before serving, float parsley and crisp bacon on soup. Serves 6.
