INGREDIENTS

  • Soup Base

    • 🥣 2 (14.5 ounce) cans chicken broth
    • 🥔 4 cups cubed red potatoes
    • 🧅 1/4 cup minced onion
    • 🧄 1/2 teaspoon garlic salt
    • 🧂 1/2 teaspoon seasoned salt
    • 🧂 1/2 teaspoon sea salt

  • Creamy Texture

    • 🧀 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened

  • Toppings

    • 🥓 8 slices smoked bacon, cut into 1/4-inch strips

STEPS

1

Combine broth, potatoes, onion, garlic salt, seasoned salt, sea salt, cayenne, basil, and parsley in a slow cooker. Cover and cook until potatoes are tender on Low, 6 to 8 hours, or on High, 4 to 6 hours.

2

Use a potato masher to mash the potatoes in the slow cooker to preferred consistency. Add the cream cheese in spoonfuls to melt until smooth.

3

Meanwhile, place bacon in a large skillet and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Drain bacon slices on paper towels. Stir into soup or set aside as a serving garnishment. Heat until ready to serve.
