If you want a yummy, warm comfort food, then you will want to try this recipe for Potato Chowder! Â It is super easy to make and includes what I call “real” ingredients!
Ingredients
7 – 8 medium potatoes, cubed
3 cans of Chicken Broth (14.5 oz)
1 can of Cream of Chicken Soup
1/4 – 1/3 cup of onion (preference)
1/4 pepper
8 oz cream cheese cubed (the smaller the better)
Bacon (optional – I use Oscar Mayer Precooked bits)
Chives, minced (optional)
Place the potatoes, broth , soup, onion and pepper into a slow cooker (good idea to use a liner or spray before hand for easy clean up). Â Cover and cook for around 8 hours (the smaller the cubes of potatoes, the quicker they will cook. Â If you use bigger cubes, you may need to cook longer, until the potatoes are cooked through).
At about 7 hours, add in the cream cheese and stir. Â You will want it to melt down as much as possible so as to not have large chunks. Â It usually takes around 1 – 1 1/2 hours for it to break down completely.
Top each serving with bacon and chives (as desired). Â You can cook your own bacon or use the Oscar Mayer pieces like we do.
Serve with homemade bread (cuz home made bread makes everything taste even better)!!!
