German Potato Soup
German potato soup is usually filled with heavy, fatty ingredients, but it just tastes so good when the temperature drops in the winter! That’s why we created this lighter version that uses nonfat yogurt to get a creamy consistency, and lots of veggies to ramp up the flavor. You won’t be missing the extra calories, especially when there are crunchy turkey bacon bits sprinkled on top.
Ingredients
1 Tbsp. olive oil
3 slices turkey bacon, chopped
½ medium onion, chopped
1 leek, chopped

3 medium potatoes, cut into ½-inch cubes
1 bay leaf
1 tsp. caraway seeds
½ tsp. ground black pepper
¼ tsp. sea salt
¼ tsp. ground nutmeg
