Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 medium-sized, peeled and diced Russet potatoes
- 1 medium, diced Yellow onion
- 4 cups Chicken broth
- 3 cloves, minced Garlic
- 1.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
- 1.5 cups Heavy cream
- 2 cups, shredded (plus extra for garnish) Cheddar cheese
- 6 slices, crumbled (plus extra for garnish) Cooked bacon
- 3 sliced (for garnish) Green onions
- 1.5 cups (optional, for garnish) Sour cream
Instructions
Peel and dice the potatoes into 1/2-inch cubes. Dice the onion and mince the garlic.
In your slow cooker, combine the diced potatoes, onion, garlic, chicken broth, salt, and black pepper.
Cover and cook on low for 6-7 hours, or on high for 3-4 hours, until the potatoes are fork-tender.
Once the potatoes are cooked, use a potato masher or immersion blender to partially mash the mixture, leaving some chunks for texture.
Stir in the heavy cream and 1.5 cups of the shredded cheddar cheese, mixing until the cheese has melted and the soup is creamy.
Add the crumbled bacon to the soup, reserving some for garnish if desired. Stir to combine.
Taste the soup and adjust the seasoning with additional salt and pepper, if needed.
Ladle the soup into bowls and top each serving with a sprinkle of shredded cheddar cheese, crumbled bacon, sliced green onions, and a dollop of sour cream, if using.
Serve hot and enjoy this comforting, satisfying dish!
