Make this a loaded baked potato soup easily by topping it with a dollop of sour cream, crumbled bacon, green onions, and shredded cheese.

This soup is very easy to make, although be careful when thickening the milk to not heat on too high of heat. The milk may burn creating a not pleasant taste. It is better to heat on lower heat to be on the safe side.
