Ingredients

  • 6 cups diced potatoes (peeled)
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

  • Optional garnishes: extra cheese, bacon bits, chopped green onions, or chives

Instructions

  1. Peel and dice the potatoes into even-sized pieces.
  2. In the crock pot, layer the diced potatoes at the bottom. Sprinkle ranch seasoning over the potatoes. Add shredded cheese and crumbled bacon on top.
  3. Pour the broth over the layered ingredients, ensuring the liquid covers them.
  4. Cook on low for 420-480 minutes or on high for 240 minutes, until the potatoes are tender.
  5. Stir in heavy cream, season with salt and pepper. For a smoother soup, use an immersion blender.

Notes

For a richer flavor, use smoked bacon. To add spice, consider diced jalapeƱos or cayenne pepper.
