Bacon Potato Chowder

This soup goes really well with a bread bowl. Be careful not to scortch it, it happens fast if not watching soup.

8 slices of bacon
3 med potatoes, cubed
1 med onion, diced
1 can cream of chicken soup
1 1/2 cup water
1 cup sour cream
1 1/2 cup milk or cream, of course cream is better!
1/2 tsp. salt
1 T. parsley
Pepper to taste

Cook bacon until crisp. Saute onions in the bacon grease. Put cubed potatoes in a 3 qt. kettle. Chop up bacon. Add the chopped bacon and sauteed onions to the potatoes. Pour water over and let simmer in covered pot until potatoes are tender. Stir in soup and sour cream. Gradually stir in milk and seasonings. Heat to serving temperature.
