SLOW COOKER LOADED POTATO SOUP



SLOW COOKER LOADED POTATO SOUP image

Categories     Potato

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 to 3 1/2 lbs russet potatoes, peeled and diced into 1/2-inch to 3/4-inch pieces (about 7 medium potatoes, 8 - 9 cups)
1 medium yellow onion, finely diced (1 cup)
3 (14.5 oz) cans low-sodium chicken broth
1 cup evaporated milk
Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
1/3 cup butter
1/3 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup sour cream
1 1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese (6 oz)
9 oz bacon, cooked and diced or crumbled
4 green onions, diced

Steps:

  • To a 6 or 7-quart slow cooker, add potatoes, onion, chicken broth, evaporated milk and season with salt and pepper to taste. Cover with lid and cook on HIGH heat for 4 hours or LOW heat for 8 hours (poke potatoes with a fork to check make sure they're soft). Ladle out 2 cups liquid from soup mixture in crock pot into a liquid measuring cup, set aside. In a medium saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Add flour and cook, stirring constantly, 2 minutes. While whisking, slowly pour 2 cups liquid in measuring cup into butter mixture (it will thicken quickly). Pour butter mixture into slow cooker and stir to blend. If desired, mash potatoes with a potato masher to break down into smaller pieces or use an emulsion blender to puree. Cover and cook on HIGH heat until thickened, about 10 minutes. Turn heat off (or to warm), stir in sour cream. Serve warm topped with cheddar, bacon and green onions (you can just mix in those three remaining ingredients into slow cooker or top individual servings). Recipe Source: Cooking Classy

Tips:

  • For a creamier soup, use a higher ratio of potatoes to broth. You can also add a dollop of sour cream or cream cheese when serving.
  • If you don't have a slow cooker, you can make this soup on the stovetop. Just bring all of the ingredients to a boil in a large pot, then reduce heat to low and simmer for 1-2 hours, or until the potatoes are tender.
  • Feel free to add other vegetables to this soup, such as carrots, celery, or corn. You can also add a protein, such as cooked chicken or bacon.
  • For a vegetarian version of this soup, omit the bacon and use vegetable broth instead of chicken broth.
  • Serve this soup with a dollop of sour cream, shredded cheddar cheese, and chopped chives.

Conclusion:

This slow cooker loaded potato soup is a hearty and comforting meal that is perfect for a cold day. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. Whether you like it creamy or chunky, with or without meat, this soup is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
