It’s fall and that means time for soups and warm meals! I made this soup on Monday to get us through the next couple days.
This is a super, super easy recipe. I used this recipe as the basis, but had to cut the ingredients down because the original wouldn’t fit in my 6-quart crockpot. I don’t remember if I posted this before, but if I did it has been a long time.
Ingredients:
- 3 pound potatoes with skin, diced into 1/2 inch cubes
- 1/2 an onion diced
- 1 teaspoon minced garlic
- 8 ounces of frozen kernel corn
- 4 cups of vegetable broth
- 8 ounces of milk (I used 2%)
- salt and pepper to taste
Place all ingredients in the crock pot except for the milk. Don’t worry, the liquid will not cover all the potatoes and this is okay. Cook on low for 8 hours or high for 6 hours.
Using a potato masher, mash some of the potatoes, but leave the soup somewhat chunky. This will thicken it up. Stir in the milk and let it heat through for another 5 minutes or so. If you want a thinner soup, add more milk. Then serve with optional crumbled bacon or cheese (or both!).
This makes about 11-12 cups of soup.
That looks yummy, thanks Lori!
Oh yummy! Do you recommend one kind of potato over another?
Either Russetts or Yukon gold. Any white potato that isn’t waxy, really.
That looks and sounds delicious! Adding to my recipes….
INTERESTING!!!
Ive never made anything like this before!
and yes. what debby asked too 🙂
Any white potato like Russetts or Yukons would be good.
I could eat the hell out of this soup. Just sayin… 🙂
I think you should put your air conditioner on arctic blast and make this Shelley 😉
That looks delicious! I love chunky soups and that would be perfect!! Plus, the fact that you can make it in the crock pot makes me super happy!!
That sounds like fancy mashed potatoes to me lol! I bet it’s warming after one of your cold bike rides though.
Oh my! That looks delicious!!!!! Bookmarked!!!!
I may add some scallions and brocolli to this and yummy!
thanks for sharing this on these very chilly days.
Mmm, this has me wanting to make potato soup! Not quite cold enough here yet. 🙂
