A comforting and creamy potato soup topped with crispy bacon and fresh chives, perfect for chilly evenings.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 large potatoes, peeled and diced
  • 1 cup onion, chopped
  • 4 cups chicken or vegetable broth
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 3 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Chopped chives for garnish

Instructions

  1. In a large pot, combine the diced potatoes, chopped onion, and broth. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat.
  2. Once boiling, reduce the heat to a simmer and cook for about 20 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender.
  3. Using an immersion blender, blend the soup until it’s smooth and creamy.
  4. Stir in the heavy cream and milk, and season the soup with salt and pepper to taste.
  5. Add the shredded cheddar cheese, stirring until it melts and is fully incorporated into the soup.
  6. Serve hot, garnished with crumbled bacon and chopped chives for an extra pop of flavor.

Notes

For a lighter version, swap heavy cream for half-and-half or dairy-free alternatives like coconut cream. Reserve some diced potatoes before blending for a chunkier texture.
