My friend Cara over at Pearls and Handcuffs makes this ridiculously amazing and simple soup…in fact today, I’m not even going to show you my pics, I’m going to show you hers (it’s that simple that I didn’t even bother taking my own pictures!).
I whip this up in my slow cooker all the time (and sometimes, I’ll brown one pound of Owens sausage up first and put that in too…sausage always makes a good addition to potato soup!).
Here are your ingredients…
And here is your finished soup…
Make this soup! Like TODAY! You will love it!
Shopping List
1 pound of ground sausage, browned (optional)
1 (30 oz) bag of frozen, shredded hash browns
3 (14 oz) cans of chicken broth
1 can cream of chicken soup
1 onion, chopped
A little salt and pepper
1 (8 oz) package of cream cheese (do not use fat-free because it won’t melt!)
Shredded cheddar cheese and/or chopped green onions to garnish
In your slow cooker, add in your sausage (optional), hash browns, broth, soup, onion and a pinch of S&P. Cook on low 6 to 8 hours or on high 3 to 4 hours. About an hour before serving, add in your cream cheese, cover soup back up and keep heating.
Give the soup one big stir before ladling it into bowls and garnishing.
Such a yummy potato soup!
Thanks Cara!

I made this yesterday morning and by the time we got home from church it was all ready! I have used shredded hashbrowns but I also LOVE it with the cubed frozen hashbrowns too! It makes it feel like real chunks of potato! 🙂 Thanks for sharing your ideas this week for simple meals!!! LOVE them!!

Made this yesterday, it was a huge hit! So good! I did use the diced hash browns instead of shredded and used italian turkey sausage. Also used light (not fat free) cream cheese.
Turned out great! Thanks.

Should we use the 8 oz package of creamed cheese? I make a new slow cooker recipe from your blog every week 🙂 you're awesome!

Love this soup!!! It is easy and delicious which makes it a win-win in my book! I add some Cajun spice to kick it up a notch but it is yummy either way. Love slow cooker recipes and love so many of the recipes you share! Thanks 🙂

It says to add the broth soup in the first step
When do you add the cream of chicken soup ? The recipe never says when

I just left out a comma. I have corrected it now. It says broth soup (just no comma).
