Steps:

• In a large saucepot, over high heat melt the butter and add the leeks and garlic. Cook over medium heat until they are translucent. Add the hot stock and whisk to combine.
• In a separate bowl, whisk together the riced potatoes, buttermilk, sour cream, and grated Parmesan. Add this mixture to the soup stirring constantly. Season with salt and pepper. Remove from the heat and add the Sherry vinegar.

Steps:

• Place bacon in a large skillet and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly thoroughly cooked but not crisp, about 8 minutes. Drain bacon slices on paper towels. Cut strips in half lengthwise, then chop into small pieces.
• Leave 1 tablespoon bacon drippings in the skillet and reserve another tablespoon separately.
• Saute onion in the bacon drippings over medium heat just until pieces start to turn brown, 5 to 7 minutes.
• Meanwhile, combine leftover mashed potatoes, chicken broth, and half-and-half in a 6-quart pot over medium-high heat; whisk until smooth. Mix in reserved bacon drippings plus corn, garlic and herb seasoning blend, green hot pepper sauce, paprika, Worcestershire sauce, pepper, and red hot pepper sauce. Add sauteed onion and chopped bacon; bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 30 minutes.

Steps:

• 1. Dice up any large pieces of potatoes and place them in a pot with the cream and milk. Heat gently over medium heat, stirring. Add onion, cover, and simmer gently until onion softens, total time about 5 minutes.
• 2. Sprinkle in cheese and stir until it melts away. Then turn off heat and stir in sour cream. Taste and season with salt and pepper to your liking. Add butter if desired.
• 3. Serve immediately, or place in refrigerator container to use the next day. To reheat, place over low heat and stir until just serving temperature. Serve topped with sliced scallions and/or grated cheese and bacon bits.

Steps:

• Add oil to a large & deep (2-3 inches deep) saucepan or soup pot, set over medium-high heat. Add onion & celery, saute for 3-5 minutes or until softened. Add stock & simmer approximately 6 minutes, then add the left over mashed potatoes and bring to a simmer.
• Using a hand blender or regular blender, puree soup until smooth (when using a regular blender, work in batches to prevent messy cleanups!). Add leftover corn, cauliflower or broccoli, Cheddar Cheese, salt, white pepper, & paprika (crumbled bacon pieces - if you have them). Stir to combine all well and allow the cheese to melt. Serve immediately or, allow to completely cool and then store in an airtight container in the Refrigerator for up to 7 days, or - in the Freezer for up to 2-3 months.
