Our poor trick-or-treaters had to brave the 40 degree weather last night. I hope their mommies fixed them something filling and belly-warming like this tasty soup. Because it is a crockpot soup, it can be put together before work or school. It makes a pretty big pot so we will be having left-overs for the next few days.
Loaded Baked Potato Soup
6 large potatoes, peeled and diced
1 large onion, diced
3 (14 oz) cans chicken broth
3 cloves garlic, microplaned
Salt and pepper to taste (Be sure to use quite a bit of salt, think a tsp or two)
1 cup cream
Toppings: sharp cheddar cheese, green onion, sour cream and bacon.
Combine all ingredients; cover and cook in the crockpot on high for 4 hours or low for 8 hours (potato should be tender). Mash mixture until potatoes are coarsely chopped and soupy is slightly thickened. Top with desired delights. Serves 8.

I love crock pot meals. This looks really easy and so tasty. Potatoes as a main dish….yes!
I don’t think I use my crockpot nearly enough. Do you have any good crockpot recipes?
My favorite crock pot meal: brown a pork roast (any cheap cut works) in a pan then toss in crock pot with 1-2 cans of tomatillo sauce (green sauce) and some garlic. Chili Verde….YUM.
Oh that does sound good. I’ll have to try that.
I’ve just taken my crock pot out.. they’re truly wonderful! Great recipe to try out!!
I hope you enjoy it. Nothing better than potatoes, bacon, and cheese, no matter how they are combined.
Wow I”ll try this – baked potato soup is Miss T’s favorite. I’ve never made it in the crockpot but love the idea. Thanks for sharing that!
