I made it on the stove, only took about 30 minutes to make, and it turned out great. Will definitely make it again and again. Great soup for a cold day.

I know this is a stupid question, but when you added the bacon was it cooked first or raw?

Everybody really liked it, but the guys said it needed more meat. So, next time, in addition to the pound of bacon I added, we'll throw in some diced ham too.

The whole family loved this dish. Including my two year old daughter! The prep took me a little longer than 25 minutes but it was worth it since it makes such a large batch. We like it best served with the green onions on top.
