Simple Crock Pot Potato Soup Recipe Recipe For Hand

THE BEST CROCK-POT POTATO SOUP

Steps:

• Dice the red potatoes, the red or yellow onion, and the celery. Dice the green onion bulbs, then dice the green onion tops and reserve the green garnish for later. Add the potatoes to your slow cooker then top with the diced veggies, ham, spices, and chicken broth. Cook on low for 6-8 hours or on high for 4-6 hours.
• An hour before serving, prep the roux by warming the milk and whisking in the flour until lump-free. Slowly stir in the roux and turn your Crock-Pot on high. Cook for an additional 30-60 minutes until the broth is simmering. (It must be bubbling for the flour to have a thickening effect.)
• Serve this soon-to-be family favorite with some loaded baked potato toppings - sour cream, shredded cheddar cheese, and bacon crumbles topped with a dash of "love" (sprinkle on some chopped scallions). ENJOY!

SIMPLE SLOW COOKER POTATO SOUP

Steps:

• Spray the slow cooker, at least 4 quarts in size, with non-stick spray.
• Place all the ingredients, except the cream cheese, into the slow cooker.
• Mix thoroughly before starting the slow cooker.
• Cook on low for 8 - 9 hours.
• Blend the final product. (I use a hand blender.).
• Fold in the cream cheese just before serving.
• Note: I did not peel the potatoes, liking the nutrition of the skin, not minding the darker flecks in the soup.
• Note: I add no salt, since there was plenty of sodium from the condensed soup, broth, and turkey bacon, even with the low sodium varieties.
• Note: I did not prepare the turkey bacon except to dice it, and I used UNCURED because that is how the turkey bacon we get at our supermarket comes.
• Note: 12 potatoes makes a much thinner soup whereas 18 makes a stew with a mashed potato-like consistency.
