A creamy green bean and potato soup aided by a can of cream of chicken soup, fresh green beans, potatoes, onion, and bacon bits.
Ingredients
- 3 cups fresh green beans, trimmed and cut into 1-inch pieces
- 1 tablespoon baking soda
- 1 ½ cups peeled and diced potatoes
- 2 cups water, or as needed
- 1/3 cup melted butter
- ½ cup diced onion
- 1/3 cup bacon bits
- 1 (10.5 ounce) can cream of chicken soup
- 3 cups milk
- salt and ground black pepper to taste
Directions
Step 1
Place green beans into a pot with enough water to cover. Add baking soda to the water; bring the mixture to a boil, reduce heat to medium, and cook until green beans are nearly tender, 7 to 10 minutes. Drain water from green beans; set aside.
Step 2
Place potatoes into a large pot with 2 cups water or enough to cover; bring to a boil, reduce heat to medium, and continue cooking until almost tender, about 20 minutes. Remove from heat, but do not drain the water from the pot.
Step 3
Heat butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook onion and bacon bits in melted butter until onions are soft and translucent, 5 to 7 minutes; add to the large pot with potatoes, and add in cream of chicken soup and milk; stir until smooth. Add green beans. Season with salt and pepper.
Step 4
Place the large pot over low heat and cook the soup at a simmer until hot and the flavors have melded, about 30 minutes.
