Creamy Crockpot Potato Soup Recipe

Things in my part of West Virginia have been pretty cold and wet recently.  When the weather gets like this nothing beats a warm and hearty potato soup.  In fact the ONLY way this soup could get better is if it were made in a crockpot!  

I originally saw this recipe for Creamy Crockpot Potato Soup on The Wifestyle Channel on YouTube.  However, I put my little Kitchen Wife twist on things and I am so pleased to say that IT IS DELICIOUS!  I can't wait to share it with you so...

Let's Get Started!



Creamy Crockpot Potato Soup:
*Prep Time: 5 min *Cook Time: 6 hours *Difficulty: Easy *Servings: 4-6 

Ingredients:

• 1 bag of Southern Style Frozen Potatoes
• 1 15 oz. can of Cream of Celery Soup
• 4 c Chicken Broth
• 1 8oz Block of Cream Cheese, room temperature
• 2 Stalks of Celery, diced
• 1 tsp Seasoning Salt
• 1/2 tsp Pepper

Let's talk potatoes.  When testing this recipe, I tried all varieties of frozen and fresh potatoes.  By far Studhubs and I's favorite was the southern style with the peppers and onions.  If that's not your thing, just know that this recipe will work with any kind of potato you choose.  You'll just need to add 1 diced onion if you use something different.

To begin you will pour the frozen potatoes into the crockpot.

My mom has always said that the key to a great potato soup is the celery and onion.  I agree 100% so, add the diced celery (and onion if you are not using the southern style potatoes).

After that you will combine the chicken broth and cream of celery soup together in a large mixing bowl.

You don't have to do this step, but I think it helps the broth come out better than just dumping it all into the crockpot.

Something I learned from The Pioneer Woman is that seasoning salt is the perfect accent to any potato recipes so add your seasoning salt and...

pepper.

Whisk everything together until smooth.

Pour over the potatoes in the crockpot.

Give everything a nice little stir.

Place the lid on the crockpot and...

set on LOW for 6 hours.

30 minutes to and hour (I prefer an hour) cut your room temperature cream cheese into cubes and...

add to the crockpot.

Cover once again and cook the remaining time left.

Stir until smooth and creamy and Enjoy!

This Creamy Crockpot Potato Soup Recipe is so easy, and the flavor is out of this world!  I'm not lying when I say that I enjoy it more than my own homemade Creamy Potato Soup! The peppers and onions in the southern style blend potatoes are a real game changer that I KNOW you and your family will love!  I can't wait to hear what you think and if you make this recipe be sure to post a picture and tag me using #thekitchenwife !

And as always...
