Have you made this one in the crock pot? Would it turn out as good?

I made this today. UM GOOD. I have never had potato soup but love potatoes (well Red potatos). This is added to my recipes. THANK YOU THANK YOU

I did add a little garlic to it, but that's just because we LOVE garlic.

I'm going to try this tomorrow since it has been freezing here, and I love potato soups. Thanks for the recipe!

yummm! This recipe sounds great!

I like the sounds of this one. I have a recipe for baked potato soup that is amazing, but it calls for something like 4 or 6 cups of milk!! This would be much more cost friendly since you get the creamy goodness from the cream cheese.

Can you tell me about how much does this make and does it reheat well?? Thanks!

__________________

We did not reheat it because we didn't have any leftovers. I would say make a double batch, not sure is that would leave you which much leftovers though.

This serves bout 4...maybe 6...depends on your family really...last time I made it 2 adults and 2 kids killed it.

Thank You, I am going to make this today!!

This soup was really yummy. I would suggest keeping a close eye on the potatos. When I added my cream cheese the potatos kept mushing because it took a little bit for the cream cheese to melt.
