Crock Pot Crack Potato Soup

Crock Pot Crack Potato Soup

A hearty and creamy potato soup loaded with cheddar cheese, bacon, and a touch of ranch seasoning – perfect for a comforting meal made easy in the crock pot.

Ingredients:

6 cups diced potatoes, peeled
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1/2 cup cooked and crumbled bacon
1 packet ranch seasoning mix
4 cups chicken or vegetable broth
1 cup heavy cream (or half-and-half for a lighter version)
Salt and pepper, to taste
Optional garnishes: extra cheese, bacon bits, chopped green onions, or chives

Directions:

Prepare the Potatoes: Peel and dice the potatoes into even-sized pieces for uniform cooking.
Layer the Ingredients: In the crock pot, place the diced potatoes at the bottom. Sprinkle the ranch seasoning evenly over the potatoes. Add the shredded cheese and crumbled bacon on top.
Add the Broth: Pour the chicken or vegetable broth over the layered ingredients, ensuring that the liquid just covers them.
Cook the Soup: Cover the crock pot and cook on low for 7-8 hours or on high for 4 hours, until the potatoes are tender and easily mashed.
Add Cream and Season: Once the potatoes are cooked, stir in the heavy cream. Season with salt and pepper to taste. For a smoother soup, use an immersion blender to puree the soup to your desired consistency.
Serve: Ladle the hot soup into bowls and garnish with extra cheese, bacon bits, and chopped green onions or chives, if desired.
