BLT AND P (BACON, LEEK, TOMATO AND POTATO) SOUP
Bacon, Leek and Tomato Soup is a soup for any season! It is surprisingly light and colorful and full of vegetables. It makes a simple, flavorful, special lunch or supper that warms you up, soul and stomach. It is especially delicious on rainy days or nights! I first made this for my mom because she and I both LOVE Oscar's bacon and we wanted a whole pot full of soup that tasted like it! We ate a pot of it while watching movies curled up in the living room of the cabin.

Steps:
- Heat a medium soup pot or deep sided skillet over medium-high heat. To the hot pan add a drizzle of extra-virgin olive oil and the bacon. Cook bacon until brown and crisp. Add the chopped celery. Take peeled carrots and lay flat on cutting board. Hold each carrot at root end and use the vegetable peeler to make long, thin strips of the carrot. Chop the thin slices into small carrot bits or carrot chips, 1/2-inch wide. Add the chips to celery and stir. Cut leeks lengthwise and then into 1/2-inch half moons. Place the leeks into a colander and run under rushing cold water, separating the layers to wash away all the trapped grit. When the leeks are separated and clean, shake off water and add to celery and carrots. Stir veggies together, add a bay leaf and season with salt and pepper. While the leeks cook to wilt, 3 to 4 minutes, slice the potatoes.
- Cut each potato across into thirds. Stand each piece of potato upright and thinly slice it. The pieces will look like raw potato chips.
- Add stock to vegetables and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and add potatoes and tomatoes. Cook 8 to 10 minutes until potatoes are tender and starting to break up a bit. Add bacon and parsley and stir. Adjust seasonings. Serve immediately with crusty bread.

BACON AND TOMATO SOUP FROM MELINDA LEE
Steps:
- Sauté the chopped onion and diced bacon in the butter in a medium-size (3 quart) saucepan until the onion is soft and the bacon is cooked. *Peel the tomatoes by coring them, cutting an "X" at the opposite end, and placing them into boiling water for about 15 seconds. Remove the tomatoes to the sink and run cold water over them for a moment or so. Drain; the skins will slip off easily. Cut the tomatoes in half and gently squeeze out the seeds, using a fingertip if necessary. A quick rinse will wash away clinging seeds. Chop the tomatoes. Add the tomatoes, the thyme and the bay leaves to the onion and bacon in the saucepan. Sauté for about 6 minutes. Add the stock, salt and pepper. Bring the mixture to a boil, then lower the heat and simmer the soup gently for about 20 minutes. Remove the bay leaves, then process the soup in a food processor, use an immersion blender, or put the soup through a food mill to puree it. [Note: you may also puree the soup in a blender, which will result in an especially smooth texture - some prefer a less-smooth result.] Add the cream (or other dairy choice). Taste to correct seasoning. Sprinkle with freshly grated nutmeg. Soup may be served hot or cold with an additional dab of whipped heavy cream or sour cream or yogurt for garnish. COOK'S NOTE: After cream has been added, reheat the soup gently (if serving warm) - do not allow it to boil. A sprinkling of toasted sunflower or pumpkin seeds may also be used as garnish, or crisp-cooked crumbled bacon - even tiny cubes of cream cheese, or a sprinkle of fresh-chopped parsley.
