6slicesturkey baconcooked and crumbled/cut (I use turkey or beef)
Instructions
To begin, combine everything except the sour cream and turkey bacon in your slow cooker. Stir and cover.
Cook on low heat in your slow cooker for 7-8 hours.
Find and discard the bay leaf.
Use an immersion blender to give it just a couple "buzzes." If you don’t have an immersion blender, use a potato masher and mash a little of the contents. This makes the soup nice and thick.
Stir in the sour cream.
Serve the soup with turkey bacon bits sprinkled on top.
