Slow-Cooker Cheesy Potato Soup

Searching for a new family-favorite meal to take some pressure off the dinner hour? Give this slow-cooker cheesy potato soup a try. Its velvety texture enriched with cheese and crispy bacon is mostly a hands-free affair. Potatoes cook all day in the slow cooker until they’ve broken down into a creamy broth. Stir in the thickener of half-and-half and flour during the last half hour and the cheese and bacon, right before serving. Garnish this soup like a loaded potato with more cheese, more bacon, a sprinkle of green onions and if you’re feeling extra, a dollop of sour cream! Once your family gets a taste, you’ll understand why this recipe has earned more than 600 ratings from satisfied home cooks.
