Ingredients Needed
- Broth
- Potatoes
- Onion
- Garlic
- Salt
- Bacon
- Dairy Free Cheddar Cheese
- Dairy Free Sour Cream
- Green Onions
- Nutritional Yeast
If you use veggie broth, you have yourself a vegan potato soup as well!
If you are not dairy free, you can of course do cheddar cheese and sour cream with dairy in them.
Instructions
Start by prepping all the veggies, chopping the potatoes into bite sized pieces, and chopping the onions and garlic then add the veggies to the instant pot or crock pot.
Add the broth then start cooking. For the crock pot, cook on high for 3-4 hours. For the Instant Pot, cook on the soup setting for 3 minutes.
When finished, use an immersion blender and blend everything together. Note, I recommend blending everything smoothly, but if you prefer you can leave some chunks in!
Add in salt and nutritional yeast to taste.
Now it's time for the toppings! Spoon the soup into bowls and top individually with the bacon, cheese, green onions, and more nutritional yeast if desired. Enjoy!
Storage and Reheating
Store any leftover soup in an airtight container and keep in the fridge for up to 4 days.
You'll definitely want to store the toppings separately! If you mix them all together and then store them the toppings will be soggy when you go to eat it.
To reheat, the best option is to place the soup in a pan and reheat it over medium heat on the stove. Stir frequently.
Add the toppings at the end like you did when the meal was first cooked.
Can I freeze this soup?
Yes you can freeze this baked potato soup! Place it in a freezer bag or an airtight container and freeze, leave some room in the container as it will expand!
To thaw, leave the container in the fridge the day before you need it.
Again, I wouldn't freeze the toppings with the soup. Store them separately, or better yet use fresh toppings when you reheat the soup!
Clean Bacon Options
If you need a sugar free, Whole30 bacon, check out Naked Bacon! Use code THECLEANHAPPYLIFE to get a free pack of bacon with your order! Naked Bacon has such clean products, they're my favorite Whole30 compatible bacon. They raise their pigs humanely, and treat them well.
Their bacon comes in different varieties, including chipotle and jalapeno! Check out their sausage links too, they're so yummy! It's so great to have clean breakfast options available!
Another good option is clean bacon from Applegate.
You can also check out local farm shares or CSA options. I recently got my first pig share and absolutely love it, I know how fresh the meat is and how well cared for the animal was. You're also supporting local farmers this way, which is a wonderful way to use your money if at all possible.
