Baked Potato Soup

It was a little chilly here today, so I decided to make some warm soup to help everyone warm up. I really like potato soup and this soup tasted just as good as any other potato soup I have had.
Ingredients:
-1/2 Stick of Butter
-1/4 Cup Chopped Onion
-1/4 Cup All-Purpose Flour
-1 Can Chicken Broth
-1 Can Evaporated Milk
-5 Small-Medium Potatoes, Baked or Microwaved (I put ours in the microwave for 15 minutes)
-Cooked and Crumbled Bacon
-Shredded Cheddar Cheese
-Sliced Green Onions
Melt butter in large sauce pan with onions. Cook until onions are tender.Stir in flour, broth and evaporated milk. Scoop pulp from 1 potato, reserve the skin and mash. Add pulp to broth mixture. Cook over medium heat until mixture comes to a boil. Dice remaining potatoes (without skin) and potatoe skin from 1st potatoe and add to the soup. Heat through. Season with salt and pepper.
Top with bacon, green onion, and cheese.I served it with french bread and salad. Enjoy!
