Tips for making Slow Cooker Skinny Potato Soup

The key is finding some really creamy style potatoes like these delicious fingerling potatoes. Then a nice mix of herbs with onions and garlic in the broth cooking all day creates loads of flavor.

Author: Jennifer Draper

Ingredients

  • 1 pound fingerling potatoes
  • 2 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 1/4 cup diced onion
  • 3 cups vegetable broth
  • 1/4 teaspoon dried dill
  • 1/4 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1/4 teaspoon dried chives
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup whipped cream cheese with chives (for later)
  • Fresh herbs for garnish (optional, I used parsley)

Instructions

  • Wash and cut potatoes into large chunks
  • Add to slow cooker along with diced onion and minced garlic
  • Add in broth and seasoning
  • Cover and cook on high for 3-4 hours or low for 6-8 until potatoes are tender
  • Whisk in cream cheese and let continue to cook and heat through for another 15-20 minutes
  • Whisk again until broth is smooth and cream cheese is fully incorporated
  • Serve garnished with fresh herbs or as desired

Notes

I cooked this on high in my 3.5 quart slow cooker for 4 hours.
You may have to give this a few extra whisks to fully incorporate cream cheese. It may look separated at first, but don't panic. Keep whisking and let heat through and it will become smooth.
