Easy Potato Soup in the Slow Cooker

My very first food blog EVER was an Easy Potato Soup recipe HERE using frozen hash browns, bacon bits and other ingredients. I never knew that making that specific recipe would lead to 139,301 views! YES you read that number correctly! That recipe was the starting point to turning my blog into a food blog.

Yesterday was 65-70 degrees (not even kidding - and for mid-February this is crazy!) and I don't necessarily like making soup or warm soup on hot days but we had some potatoes that were days away from going bad so I thought a crockpot recipe would be easy. Plus we saw the Sonic movie earlier that day with Jace so I wasn't in the mood to cook this huge meal.

I took that exact recipe from almost two years ago and used real potatoes and real bacon instead. Here is the full recipe:

Ingredients:
8-10 medium potatoes, peeled and diced
32oz box of chicken broth
22oz can of cream of chicken soup
5-6 bacon strips, cooked and crumbled
3oz cream cheese
cheddar cheese (to sprinkle on top)

Directions:
Add potatoes, chicken broth, soup, and bacon in a crockpot.

Cook for 3 hours on high. Add cream cheese and cook for 45 more minutes, or until potatoes are soft. Move crockpot to warm, serve warm and top with cheese.
