Way back when I had a recipe for potato soup made in the crock pot. Somewhere along the lines I lost it -- can anyone help me out? We used to top it with cheddar cheese and bacon - it tasted like a loaded baked potato!
 
Along the lines of what pdswife said in her link, my potatoe soup included leeks, stock, potatoes of course, but also milk or cream. I guess the only difference in the crock pot would be cooking time? Then add the cheese and bacon during the last half hour or so? I dont own a crock pot so Im guessing.
 
Here's two recipes

Potato soup #1

6 cups cubed potatoes
5 cups water
2 cups chopped onions
1/2 cup chopped celery
1/2 cup thinly sliced carrots
1/4 cup butter
4 t. chicken bouillon granules
2 t. salt
1/4 t. peppr

1 can evaporated milk (12 oz)
3 T. chopped parsley

In a large cooker, combine the first nine ingredients. Cover and cook for 7 to 8 hours on high. Add milk and and parsley, mix well. Cover and cook 30 to 60 minutes longer, or until heated through. Yield 3 quarts

Potato soup #2

8 cups diced potatoes
1/3 cup onion
3 cans, 14 1/2 ounce chicken broth
1 can 10 3/4 ounce condensed cream of chicken soup
1/4 t. pepper

8 ounces cream cheese cubed
1/2 pound bacon, cooked and crumbled

In slow cooker, combine the first 5 ingredients. COver and cook on low for 8 to 10 hours. Add cream cheese, stir until blended. Garnish with bacon. Yield 3 quarts
 
Bethzaring - you got it! #2 is the one I used to make, although #1 sounds very good too! Thank you so much - potatoes are on sale this week - ironically enough, so is bacon! Yum!
