I came up with this recipe yesterday as I had a lot of milk about to go sour on me and I like to put it to good use before that happens. I really really liked this soup so I named it Connie's Country Soup.

As the weather gets cooler, we crave hearty soup recipes. This easy to make soup is fantastic. There are so many delicious layers of flavor. From the saltiness of the bacon to the sweet flavor of the carrots, you cannot go wrong serving this soup for family and friends. It'll warm everyone up on a cold night.
