Smashed Potato Soup

I based dinner on Rachel Ray's Mashed Potato Soup (http://www.rachaelrayshow.com/food/recipes/mashed-potato-soup/) tonight. I'm sure it's not as creamy as hers (I have smashed garlic "Skinny Potatoes," along the lines of the Swanson site's recipe), but it's tasty. I didn't dump the bacon grease and skipped the butter. The cheese is the only milk in tonight's dinner, unless they used some butter on their rolls.
