With their crispy, roasted exteriors and delectable, creamy interiors, these potatoes are difficult to resist. From an English caterer, I discovered that the potatoes should be shaken before baking. Try it! It influences things.

I thought this was a nice soup. I browned the beef and bacon up and then added everything in the crockpot and cooked for several hours. I am not much for canned soups so I think next time it would be better to use a can of beans and my own seasoning mix

This was ok and I am going to play around with it a little more. I did not like the turkey bacon and will use Italian bacon next time. Also thought the basil was a little strong. Will increase broth and decrease water a bit. I browned the meat, bacon, an onion and some garlic before continuing. The noodles soak up a lot of the broth it is very thick.
