Oh my goodness! This potato soup is delicious. I followed the ingredients but substituted the onion with 1 Tbsp of onion powder as I don’t like the texture of onion. My daughter loves potato soup, and I can’t wait for her to get home from school to try this. This is a restaurant quality recipe. Thank you for sharing it.

Trying for the second time! I’m not ready to give up! Last weekend I followed this recipe exact, used the 1lb melting cheese block of velveeta cut into chunks also, but it never ever melted 😳 everything else was cooking just fine! I bumped it up to high for 30 minutes and it still didn’t melt. Should I have used/done something different?

I understand if you don’t have the time.If you can,
Thanks sooooo much!

Hey Wayne not sure how Keely does if, but I cook the onions and garlic in 4 Tablespoons of butter for about five minutes. Add the flour and stir for about a minute. Then add the potatoes, broth, and seasoning. Bring to a boil, then reduce to simmer. Cook for about 15 minutes. Add cream and milk and cook for about another 15-20 minutes until I like the potatoes texture. Add the cheese. Stir until melted and serve. Hope that helps!

You know, it really comes down to the tenderness you like. If the vegetables are put in at the beginning, they will very soft to mushy at the end. Likewise, if you add then I the last hour, they will be still pretty firm and still crispy. I would add the carrots and broccoli 1/2 way through the cooking time.

This is my second time making this! Made it last Sunday and everyone loved it, even my picky 8 yr olds. I made this using what I had on hand which was regular Idaho potatoes, it turned out beautifully! I haven’t made it with the yellow gold potatoes but I’m sure it is just as amazing. Very creamy and the ultimate comfort food! We added freshly cooked bacon crumbled up just before serving. This soup makes my heart sing! Thank you for this amazing recipe!

Just made this today. Really loved it. I did make some minor changes, and like another reviewer said, this makes an excellent base recipe.I put ham in my soup, and also the chopped frozen broccoli that you get at the store, because for some unknown reason, I have a terrible time finding florets.I didn’t use Velveeta, and instead I used an 8oz bag of the shredded smokey bacon cheese that Kraft offers. Great choice! Most people suggest not using the preshredded cheese because of the lumps that they tend to create, but I don’t mind cheesy lumps personally.I also didn’t have any half and half, so I used 1/2 cup whole milk and 3 Tablespoons of butter to substitute. Worked out awesome!Thank you for this lovely recipe! Tasted fabulous, and extremely easy to make!

When did you put the frozen broccoli in? In the beginning or at the end?

If it’s chopped really small, you will want to put it near the end. You could put it in anytime though, but you’ll lose some of the texture. It doesn’t take long to cook chopped broccoli.

First let me say this Velveeta is not cheese it is a processed cheese product. I made this recipe and used real cheese a combination of 4 cheeses, Havarti, Gruyere, Fontaina and Cheddar it was amazing. Using a crock pot makes this a mix and forget about it. I used low for 6.5 hours and was able to get everything done and have a great soup at the end of the day. I also think bacon is a must in this soup

Hello!!BEST POTATO SOUP EVER! I have made this twice, and I prefer my second remake of the soup! 4cups of the broth and heavy cream instead of the latter.. It definitely made it thicker, so if you need 4.5-5 cups of broth, go for it, but the heavy cream instead of half and half made a difference for us! Absolutely a killer! I added some potatoes because we like a big bite at my house, but this will forever be a favorite and may never be beaten! LOVE LOVE LOVE! Just wish I knew the calorie count! If anybody has any knowledge on that, I’d be grateful!

I changed this recipe a lot, mostly because I only had a 3-quart crock pot, and from some of the suggestions in the comments. I used only 3 cups of chicken broth, and it still didn’t thicken up. So I had to use extra cornstarch (didn’t have flour}. I also cooked the garlic and onions before-hand mostly because I like the flavor better when the onions are caramalized, so that’s more of a personal taste kind of thing. And lastly I had to add in some spices at the end because it did taste a little bland, but I’m also Southern so I like everything I eat to be spicy lol. But other than that, this recipe was amazing and I’m 100% going to make it again.

This soup is SO delicious. I’m making it right now to take to a soup luncheon with senior adults. I know they will love it, too. For those who have had difficulty with their soup not being thick enough, I had the same problem and added just enough instant potato flakes for thickening. It worked out great! Love the idea of adding corn and may do that this time. Thanks for so many wonderful recipes!

Cheryl – I make this recipe with a can of cream of celery soup (undiluted), 2c. of chicken broth and one pkg of cream cheese. I use regular grated cheese (pkg). Everything else is the same: bacon, pepper, onion – I brown the edges of mine). I do not use garlic, i/2&1/2, i cook my potatoes a little first, and I use 2c. of broth instead of 4-6. See all the liquid that is eliminated? You can always add it later, if you need it. I have been making this for about 15 years and it is my favorite and I am a big soup person. So please give it another try. Linda G.

This was absolutely fantastic!!! The cheese didn’t overpower the flavor, it was nice and mild, but definitely present. It was smooth and creamy and so, so good! My son (age 9) wants me to make it all the time, now. The recipe says 4-6 cups of chicken broth. I chose to go right up the middle with 5 cups. It wasn’t thick, but certainly not watery, either. I’ll stick with 5 cups. I used white pepper as opposed to black pepper just because I like the smooth flavor of white pepper, but beyond that, I followed the recipe exactly. It’s going to become a staple menu item at our house.

Dany – How did this work out using a pound of shredded cheese instead of Velveeta? This is what I’d like to try.

Made this last week. Best potato soup I’ve ever had. We had everything on hand but the onions and bacon so I didn’t bother with those two things and it was still amazing. Hearty, creamy, and the family wanted seconds! Definitely a staple soup in this kitchen.

Makes me so hungry to look at photo of soup. Will need to save other 2 recipes. We love soup for supper in warmer weather, that way not eating heavy meal but eating nutritious food. Will enjoy this soup very much. When people get older often don’t want or need to eat big meal. I will be 77 in July and hubs was 75 this past Oct.
Enjoy your weekend

Yay, what could be more delicious than potatoe soup that’s loaded with cheese and made in a crock pot. Pinned, thank you Crissy, it sounds delicious

What a delightful comfort food! It does look perfect! I used my “crockpot” often… and call it a crockpot… don’t know if I will ever be able to change to slow cooker! :)

This sounds so good, I’m making it today! But, I added carrots, and will add spinach when the cream goes in. Can’t wait to eat it tonight!
