Sometimes you need a soup that’s fast to put together and can work its magic while you’re off doing other things. Today’s Crocktober Soup Series selection features something fabulous for your crockpot: Slow Cooker Potato Soup. It’s ridiculously easy, not to mention awesome to come home to at the end of a busy day.
What’s great about this soup is you can grab a bunch of ingredients, dump them all in the slow cooker, turn it on low, and go about your day.
If you don’t want to use bacon, you can use (cooked) ham. And if you’re in a hurry and realize you forgot to fry up the bacon, just make the soup anyway without bacon. You can add the bacon later as a garnish… or you can skip it all together (if you absolutely must.)
You can also watch my video of how to put this soup together!
