So it is a weeknight, the air is crisp and you are…exhausted. Jackie Brown from Mom on a Mission has a simple, yet hearty dinner for you and your family. Her Crock Pot Loaded Potato Soup can be prepped in advance and waiting for you at the end of a long day. It is all over, but the mashing…of the potatoes. Add some bacon, green onions, or chives to taste and, of course, more cheese! Toss a quick salad and enjoy!
