Our friend Rachel Rivera, Whole30 Certified Coach and founder of The Clean Healthy Life, is here today to share a Whole30 compatible recipe for Slow Cooker Loaded Baked Potato Soup!
Baked Potato Soup is everybody’s favorite chilly weather soup, but Rachel takes it to the next level by topping it with plenty of sliced green onions, crispy crumbled Naked Bacon, and nutritional yeast, which is a Whole30 compatible seasoning that mimics the flavor of cheese.
Since it’s February, you may have just completed the January Whole30 and might be reintroducing dairy right now. Rachel suggests substituting the nutritional yeast with cheddar cheese and a dollop of sour cream.
Either way, you’ll get to have a healthy and totally flavor-loaded baked potato soup!
Ingredients
2.5 - 3 lbs. russet potatoes
4 cups chicken or vegetable broth
4 cloves garlic
1 onion
3-4 tablespoons nutritional yeast OR substitute grated cheese if you’re reintroducing dairy or otherwise not avoiding dairy.
2 green onions, sliced
8 oz. cooked and crumbled Original Naked Bacon
Instructions
1. Peel and dice the potatoes. Roughly chop the onions and garlic.
2. Add the potatoes, garlic, onions, and broth to a slow cooker, then cover and turn to high. Cook for 3 hours.
3. Use an immersion blender on high to blend the mixture into a smooth and creamy soup consistency. If you’d like to thin it out a bit, add 1/4 cup more broth at a time until it’s how you like it. Season lightly with salt and pepper to taste.
4. Serve the soups in bowls and top generously with nutritional yeast, crumbled bacon, and sliced green onions. Enjoy!

When you need some serious deliciousness in your life, you need to make these ULTIMATE Jalapeno Poppers. Our longtime friend and neighbor Lexi of @chefff_lex shared this recipe with us, and we just HAD to share it with you!
And with Memorial Day coming up this weekend, the timing couldn’t be better! Grab your favorite flavor of Naked Bacon and make these jalapeno poppers!
Prep: 10 min Cook: 20 min Serves: 6
Ingredients
6 jalapeños, halved (seeds removed)
1 cup cream cheese
1 package of Naked Bacon
1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1/3 cup diced green peppers
1/4 cup diced red onion
2 cloves diced garlic
pinch salt and pepper
2 tbsp olive oil
Instructions
Heat oven to 400'
Cook bacon partially for 7-10 minutes (this will make it crispier when the poppers are actually cooked).
Microwave cream cheese in a bowl for 1 1/2 minutes or until smooth.
Add shredded cheese, garlic, green peppers, onion, salt, and pepper to the cream cheese mixture and stir.
Fill jalapeños with cream cheese mixture and wrap with the partially cooked bacon.

Springtime has officially arrived here in St. Louis, so we’re outside most nights, firing up the grill for dinner! These Naked Bacon Wrapped Hot Dogs are super easy to make and a total crowd pleaser.
It’s no secret kids love bacon, so it makes sense that when you wrap one of the most kid-friendly foods ever (hot dogs) with Naked Bacon, they go absolutely berserk! For extra fun, print out this B is for Bacon worksheet, and make it a whole delicious/educational activity.
We truly believe everything is better once it’s wrapped in Naked Bacon. Okay, maybe don’t wrap your remote control, or your shoes, or your grandma. But pretty much every food on earth will be better once you wrap it up in our Whole30 Approved, all natural, sugar free bacon!
Serves 4
Ingredients
1 package of Original Naked Bacon
8 all-natural hot dogs
Optional: Buns, Mustard, Ketchup, Sauerkraut, Relish
Instructions
1. Preheat your grill to medium heat.
2. Take one slice of bacon and gently wrap it around one hot dog. Use a toothpick on each end to secure the bacon in place.
3. Grill the hot dogs over medium heat, turning gently once the bacon begins to crisp on each side. One the bacon begins to crisp up as it cooks, it will retain the shape and stay wrapped around the hot dog. At that point, you can remove the toothpicks carefully to avoid them from burning on the grill.
4. Set aside and allow to cool slightly, then serve with your favorite toppings and sides!
We recommend serving with a Sweet + Savory Slaw.
Serve up something fun for breakfast this weekend! We recommend making these Naked Bacon and Egg Baked Avocados. They’re made with just 3 simple ingredients, but best of all, this recipe is Keto, Whole30, Paleo, and Gluten Free!
Have you cooked your avocados yet? If you haven’t, you’re definitely in for a treat! Because avocados are already so creamy and delicious, cooking them really brings out the buttery texture and flavor.
And when you add sugar free Naked Bacon and a deliciously runny egg, you’ve got yourself the perfect complete breakfast!
Serves 4
Ingredients
2 ripe avocados
4 eggs
4 strips of Naked Bacon
Instructions
1. Preheat the oven to 375F.
2. Optional: Par-cook the bacon in a skillet over medium heat for about 3 minutes, until just starting to render some of the fat. This makes it so your bacon will be extra crispy once fully cooked.
3. Slice each avocado in half lengthwise and remove the pit. Scoop out enough of the flesh with a spoon so that the bacon and a full egg will fit inside.
4. Cut or fold each slice of bacon in half and lay inside the avocado. If necessary, set toothpicks beside the bottom of the avocado halves to keep it steady. Crack an egg onto each one.
5. Cook on a baking sheet for 12 minutes or until the egg whites are cooked through but the yolks are still a little runny. Cook for 15 minutes for a hard cooked yolk.
6. Season to taste with salt and pepper and enjoy!
Don’t forget to serve with a Naked Bacon Bloody Mary!
