I am a soup lover. In the winter it’s my GO to food. And when I can use my slow cooker to make soup then I am ecstatic. This Easy CrockPot Potato Soup combines my love of the slow cooker with my penchant for soups so for that reason it’s a favourite of mine.
Are you a potato soup fan or no?
This February has presented us with a string of snowstorms and under minus 20 temperatures. That’s the kind of cold you can barely recover from. Luckily I have my secret weapon – my crockpot. I use this baby at least once a week in the winter because there is nothing easier or simpler than food prepared fast, and ready all day long.
Plus I love that I can throw everything in one pot and let it be for the day, then open it and eat it at dinner time. The other great benefit of this style of cooking is that I can completely control the sodium in our food. That makes me happy. These days I make a lot of soups. So I thought I would share with you one of my favourites of all time. This is my easy crockpot potato soup.
I like to think that the onions and garlic within the recipe give me a little boost of immune support too. That makes me happy because I feel like I am fortifying my family in more than one way. Potato soup was something I couldn’t eat as a child because I really couldn’t tolerate dairy until my 30s. Now, I am making up for lost time eating potato soup regularly. It’s comfort food at its finest!
Enjoy!
Easy and Scrumptious CrockPot Potato Soup
Ingredients:
- ½ cups Diced Onions
- 4 cups Cubed Russett Potatoes – Skin On
- 1 teaspoon Seasoned Salt
- 4 cups Chicken Stock
- 2 minced garlic
- 8 ounces, weight Cream Cheese
- 9 slices Bacon
- ½ cups Shredded Cheese
- ¼ cups Green Onions, Chopped
Potato Soup Instructions:
In a crock pot, combine onion, potatoes, seasoned salt, stock and garlic cloves. Cook on low for 8-10 hours.
Blend or Puree about 1/3 of the mixture. Return to the crock pot with the rest of the soup and stir in the cream cheese. Stir every 15 minutes until well blended.
Top each bowl with crumbled bacon, shredded cheese and onions.
Note: if you like the soup a little thicker you can mash some of the potatoes up and it chunky and so creamy and just like those at the restaurants.
Thanks. I want to try this recipe. I like soups done in the slow cooker and we love potato soup.

During the winter months there is nothing better than home made soup. We like potato soup also, but your recipe adds cream cheese, which is different then mine, so I will give this a go.
Yes the cream cheese sometimes adds some zip to recipes. Thanks for tour comment Dorothy. I am a massive potato fan.
I love soup, especially in the cold winter. I have all these ingredients and am going to make this tomorrow!

This looks and sounds delicious! I live in Orlando and love cooking in my crock pot because usually it’s just too hot to heat up the stove top and/or oven, but it’s even turned much colder than normal here…so the crock pot is working overtime! Thanks for sharing!
That’s a great reason to use your crock pot too!
This looks really delicious as well as very easy to make, thanks for sharing!

Major YUM! This looks so good and I like using my crockpot for this.

Wow. This recipe looks so great and easy. I would use vegetable broth instead of chicken, but it would probably still turn out great.
I’ve been wanting a healthier potato soup but not sure how I’d blend all that soup hot. I don’t have an immersion blender or whatever that thingy is you used 🙂
I’m not a good cook at all. This doesn’t sound difficult to make. I love using the slow cooker, throw everything in and forget about it. I’ve never heard of using cream cheese in potato soup. But, like I said, I don’t cook.
Love a good hot soup recipe. . Thanks

I love soup made in a crock pot, easy least. This recipe sounds so good on one of our seemingly endless winter snowy and cold days.
Great recipe! So glad I found this, gonna make it tomorrow!
this time of year as cold as it is there’s nothing better than homemade soup cooked in the crockpot/slowcooker.this sounds good and i love potatoes so i’m going to have to try it.
ANYTHING with bacon, onions and cheese is a winner in my books..but the other ingredients you have added into your slow cooker makes me damn mad that I haven’t bought one yet. Now I think I will…and mostly because of this recipe
Never tried making this,thank you sounds very good.
Looks delish!
I have tried store bought potato soup, but this looks and sounds more delish. Garlic is included and that is my fave spice. I am saving this recipe for sure. Thanks.
This looks and sounds so yummy. Sadly my crockpot broke….don’t ask.
Looks very good on a day like today. We have about a foot of snow. So this would be delicious.
my Hubby Loves potato soup but that’s one soup I’ve never made from scratch … made my shopping list with this on it …I’m going to try it
YUM!! This recipe looks delicious…potatoes, cream cheese, bacon:) My Crock-Pot is calling out to me!! Thanks for the recipe!
My son is a big fan of potato soup and this recipe looks easy enough for me
I love using my crock pot for these type of wonderful and tasty recipes.I am a vegetarian and would use vegetable broth and no bacon but add lots of garlic.
I love to try new crock pot recipes. I work 10-11 hours a day during the week and the crock pot makes it easy to have dinner ready when I get home.
Good recipe. I love potato soup. Pinned for later.
We love potato soup!! Gotta try this …thanks
I am going to have to make this recipe. I recently bought a new crock pot, and I love to cook with it.
I love potato soup & this looks delish. It also doesn’t look to hard to make!! I like crock pot meals!!
This soup looks easy to make and sounds really good. I have never heard of using cream cheese in a soup, but it would be a lot thicker than even heavy cream.
I like easy to cook recipes for the days that my wife and I both work late.
I’m am a potato lover. I’m a rice person if there are no potatoes. This looks amaz and I can’t wait to make it!! Thx
I am going to have to try this this week because we are suppose to actually have some sleet and snow here in East Texas and this soup would be perfect.
mmmm, thick and rich from looks. thanks for sharing
Will try this i love crock pot anything
this sounds delicious, and low fat as well, like that you use low fat ww cheese. i would use turkey bacon instead of real bacon and not use much salt, or use garlic powder, i dont use salt,
Love crock pot recipes. I keep seeing these potato soup recipes online. It’s weird because I’ve been craving it for days now. This is going on my pinterest. Thanks.
