Simple, filling, and delicious: this has become the favorite winter soup in this home! This soup travels well in a thermos, highly recommended for a winter picnic!
Crock Pot Loaded Potato Soup
Ingredients:
6 large potatoes, peeled and cubed and rinsed with cold water
1 large onion, diced
4 cups chicken broth (that's one quart)
3 garlic cloves, minced
1/4 cup butter
Salt & Pepper to taste
---
1 cup half & half
1cup shredded cheddar cheese
Add all ingredients except cheese half & half, and cook on low for 8 hours.
After 8 hours, turn to warm and mash the potatoes. Add the cheese and half & half. I used a hand blender to get the soup smooth and creamy.
Garnish with freshly cooked bacon, chopped green onions, sour cream and cheese.
