• In a large pot, sauté the bacon slices until cooked through, about 5 minutes. Remove them from the pan.
• In the bacon grease, sauté the onions with a pinch of salt and cook them for about 5 minutes.
• Add the potatoes to the onions as well as the flour and stir the flour well. Cook the potatoes for about 10-12 minutes and the potatoes start to soften. Season the potatoes with salt, pepper, lemon pepper, and parsley. You may crumble the cooked bacon and return them back to the pan if desired, but Mo's doesn't keep them in their soup, just as a flavoring. I personally add them as not to waste them!
