This version of Loaded Potato Soup is healthier because it has cauliflower added to it to make it creamier without adding extra calories. The smoky flavor of the turkey bacon makes the soup taste better and is a healthy choice.

Ingredients: 4 cups diced potatoes. 1 cup diced cauliflower. 4 cups chicken broth. 1 cup skim milk. 1 cup diced onions. 2 cloves garlic, minced. 1 cup shredded reduced-fat cheddar cheese. 4 slices turkey bacon, cooked and crumbled. Salt and pepper to taste. Chopped green onions for garnish.

Instructions: Put the cauliflower, potatoes, chicken broth, onions, and garlic in a large pot. Bring to a boil, then lower the heat and let it cook slowly until the potatoes are soft. Blend the soup with an immersion blender until it is smooth and creamy. Cheese, milk, and half of the crumbled bacon should all be mixed in. Add pepper and salt to taste. Let the flavors blend for another 10 minutes by simmering. Serve hot with the rest of the bacon crumbles and chopped green onions on top.
