Description
What's the secret to making this ultimate comfort food soup ultra creamy? Canned evaporated milk. It prevents curdling that can happen when regular milk is cooked over a long period of time. The recipe is a Yummly original created by Ashley Strickland Freeman.

Directions
- Peel potatoes and cut into chunks. Combine potatoes, evaporated milk, broth, butter, salt, and pepper in a 4-qt. slow cooker. Cover and cook on low setting until potatoes are tender, 6-8 hours.
- While soup cooks, cook bacon in a large frying pan over medium-high heat until crisp, turning once, 4-5 minutes on each side. Transfer to paper towels to drain. Crumble bacon. Coarsely shred cheese. Use kitchen scissors to snip chives.
- Puree soup in slow cooker using an immersion blender (watch out for possible splashing as it starts to mix). Or puree soup in batches in a blender.
- Divide soup among serving bowls. Top with cheese, bacon, sour cream, and chives. Add more pepper to taste if you like.

It was too bland for my family's taste.

Turned out more like very fancy mash potatoes and less like soup but it was very tasty

Meh. Not thick enough and totally under seasoned.

It was amazing and thick and creamy. We really loved this recipe. I made it twice in a month. I recommend this recipe.

Definitely had to add seasoning and it wasn’t as creamy as I hoped, but it’s a decent recipe.

Very rich delicious flavor with just a few inexpensive ingredients. I cooked it on High pressure for 4 hours rather than the 6-8 hours on Low.

Had to add things to improve flavor. this is not a creamy normal soup but more consistency of mush.

This is loaded potato bisque. That is what it smells like and taste like. I didn’t hate it, but there are some big improvements I am going to have to trial before I have made this really enjoyable!

really good! i made it for my family and they loved it. i put the crock pot on high and cooked for 3.5 hours because i didn’t have the time to cook on low 😓 but it cooked just fine. i didn’t purée it, just mashed the potatoes once it was done cooking.
