North Carolina Potato Soup

I am a proud North Carolinian. Sorry Georgia, but there is no better state in the union than North Carolina. I used to get into "friendly discussions" with fraternity brothers as to which was the best state. It always came down to Georgia, Texas and the Carolinas (there was only another guy from South Carolina - so we had to stick together). Eventually we agreed to disagree. 

What better way to celebrate your love for the Old North State than this North Carolina Potato Soup, adapted from "Our State". Even if you're not from NC, I know you'll enjoy this flavorful and creamy soup!
