tldr: make bacon in a pot -> replace bacon with potatoes & broth, boil them -> make a roux w/bacon grease & add to finished potato boil -> add extras -> serve with toppings

i didn't add normal onions or carrots to the boiling step because of food intolerances; same with the milk choice, you'll see variations online. didn't use sour cream. didn't use velveeta. i used powdered bouillon for the broth. you can use russets, the warm color came from the cheese
