- 6 medium-sized Russet potatoes peeled and diced
- 4 strips of bacon crispy, crumbled
- 1 cup cheddar cheese shredded
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 2 cups milk
- 1/2 cup green onions chopped
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 4 cups chicken broth or vegetable broth
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon salt or to taste
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper or to taste
- Optional: sour cream for topping
Add Potatoes and Broth:
Add the diced Russet potatoes to the pot along with the chicken broth. Stir to combine. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce the heat and let it simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender.
Season the Soup:
Add garlic powder, salt, and pepper to taste. Stir well and taste-test, adjusting the seasoning as needed.
Simmer and Serve:
Allow the soup to simmer for another 5-10 minutes so all the flavors meld together. Ladle into bowls and garnish with extra chopped green onions, crumbled bacon, and a dollop of sour cream if desired.
- Storage: Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
- Freezing: This soup freezes well. Let it cool completely, then transfer to freezer-safe containers. It can be frozen for up to 3 months. Reheat on the stove over low heat, adding more milk or cream if needed to reach the desired consistency.
- Customizations: Feel free to add extra vegetables like carrots or celery for added flavor, or use a different type of cheese for a unique twist.
