Cooking instruction summary:

In large soup pot, melt butter over medium heat. Whisk in flour until completely combined, continue whisking for 2-3 minutes, making sure not to let it burn. Add in milk and chicken broth, stirring to combine, bring to a simmer and turn down heat to low, stirring occasionally.Place scrubbed potatoes on microwave-safe plate. Poke potatoes with a fork randomly all over top, 10-12 times. Cook in microwave approximately 10 minutes (my microwave calculates the time based on how many potatoes). If you already have baked potatoes cooked, skip the microwave step.When potatoes are fully cooked, take out of microwave & let rest 10 minutes. After they have cooled, carefully remove skins (I like to leave a little skin on, it is healthy). Roughly chop potatoes into 1" cubes.Place cooked & cubed potatoes into soup pot, add in garlic salt and salt/pepper to taste. By now soup should be thickening. Stir in cooked and crumbled bacon and shredded cheese. Simmer an additional 10 minutes.Serve with garnishes if desired.
