Fall has arrived and we’re ready for what I affectionately call “soup weather”. We all love soup. I decided to combine two different soups to make a third. I took what we love about potato soup and combined it with broccoli cheese soup and made Broccoli Cheddar Potato Soup. And because I like things nice and simple, I made it in the Crock-Pot. Not only does it taste absolutely amazing, it’s gluten-free too! Here’s how I made it.
Crock-Pot Broccoli Cheddar Potato Soup
INGREDIENTS
- 6 potatoes, peeled and cubed
- 4 cups chicken stock (1x 32 oz box)
- 2 tbsp onion powder
- 2 tbsp garlic powder
- 1 tbsp garlic salt
- 1x 16 oz bag frozen chopped broccoli
- 2 cups half and half
- 4 cups shredded cheddar cheese
- salt + pepper to taste
INSTRUCTIONS
Place potatoes in Crock-Pot.
Cover potatoes with broth and seasonings.
Cook on high for 3 hours.
Add broccoli.
Cook on high for 45 minutes.
Add half and half and cheese.
Hand mash potatoes right in the crock.
Cook on high for 15 minutes.
Serve with salt and pepper to taste.

I stumbled upon this recipe years ago (from my header it looks like I printed this 10/12/2015!!) Anyways it is my go to. I make this at least every other month. We LOVE it. The only thing I change is I use veggie broth instead of chicken since my husband is a vegetarian. But man oh man we love this soup. I am making it again tonight. Thank you for making a GREAT tasting recipe that is also gluten free (which is the diet I must follow). So you can imagine its hard to find something we both can eat. :) Thanks again!

Can you do this in a slow cooker I don't have crock pot?

Absolutely! Crock-pot is just a brand of slow cooker so you shouldn't have a problem.

My hubby loves soup. I need to make this for him. Immediately. It might go a long way to getting the shelves installed in my blog room. He works harder after a good meal. I'm devious right. But I really need those shelves up.
