Creamy Potato Bacon Soup




Time for some comfort food, potato soup is always a comfort food, good anytime, this recipe is creamy delicious and topped with your favorite cheese, green onions is even better.

This makes a big pot of soup

8 cups cubed peeled potatoes
Small onion, chopped
3 clove garlic, minced
1/4 lb. bacon, cooked crisp, drained and crumbled
1 large carrot, shredded
1 – 8 oz package cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup heavy cream or half and half or milk
6 – cups reduced sodium chicken broth
Salt, Pepper, garlic powder and onion powder and Paprika to taste
Shredded Cheese and chopped green onions or chives for toppings

Stovetop: Mix cream and cream cheese until well blended on medium heat. Add the remaining ingredients. Cover partially and cook over low heat, stirring occasionally until onions and potatoes are soft and tender, usually about 1 hour. 

Crockpot: After blending soups and adding remaining ingredients, cover and cook, on low heat for 8-10 hours or on high heat for 4-5 hours. 

When the soup is done, I slightly emulsified it just a touch to make it extra creamy.

Top with cheese, green onions and enjoy warm.
