When I think of comfort food, my mind goes right to this creamy potato and bacon soup. It's thick rich and so easy to make in no time. Using anything from stovetop to slow cooker or even the instant pot, you can have a hearty bowl of bacon and potato soup in no time!
ingredients:
4 lbs of yellow potatoes partially microwaved, cooked then sliced
Heat the slow cooker on high, then oil spray your cooking pot. (you can make this in a soup pan, slow cooker, crockpot, instant pot or pressure cooker by following the instruction manual, Cooking times will vary)
In a large bowl add the potatoes and toss them in the flour with garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
In another medium-sized bowl, add the milk, soup, and parsley stir to combine.
Starting with the potato add a few to the bottom, pour some of the soup mixtures, sprinkle with half the shredded cheese and half the cream cheese.
Repeat with potatoes, soup, cheeses until everything is used. Top with bacon.
Set the slow cooker on low for around 2 to 3 hours, stovetop around 25 to 30 minutes until potatoes are softened. For pressure cooker, this takes around 9 to 10 minutes.
Check and make sure potatoes are soft enough. Ladle into bowls.
Serve with oyster crackers. and garnish with shredded sharp cheddar cheese

I love old fashioned stuffed artichokes and the heart is the best part when I can't find whole fresh artichokes I used canned to make this baked artichoke heart casserole.
They are the perfect solution in a pinch as they take hardly any time to prepare and so delicious!
Once you try these you will be amazed how easy they are and no fuss with the great flavor of stuffed artichokes.
The topping is fabulous and pretty much the same ingredients you would use for Italian stuffed fresh artichokes except you have all hearts!
I really love this side dish and artichokes so if you love them to try this out and keep some cans on hand so you don't have to wait for artichoke season or holidays!
