I'm trying a new crockpot potato soup recipe
and am wondering what to serve with it. Potato soup is typically pretty filling so I'm thinking just a salad. What do you think? I hope it's good. I'm in full on soup and crockpot mode lol. I'll post recipe if it's a keeper!

I made potato, roasted pepper & aspargus soup in my crock pot last week. DH loved it. DH & I were filled on the soup alone - its hearty.

Re: I'm trying a new crockpot potato soup recipe
OK, so it was OK, but I'm not loving it. I sort of combined the 2 bottom recipes, but I mostly followed the 2nd one. it was to chicken stock-y if that makes sense lol. I like the idea of the cream cheese & cream of chicken soup as the thickener but didn't love the end result. Here they are:
Potato Soup
Ingredients:
6 potatoes, peeled and diced
·1 cup chopped onion
·2 carrots, thinly sliced
·2 ribs celery, thinly sliced
·4 cups chicken broth
·1/2 teaspoon dried basil
·1 teaspoon dried parsley flakes
·1 teaspoon salt, or to taste
·1/2 teaspoon pepper
·1/4 cup all-purpose flour
·1 1/4 cups cream or half-and-half
·real bacon bits, optional
Preparation:
Combine first potatoes, chopped onion, carrots, celery, chicken broth, basil, parsley, salt, and pepper in a slow cooker.
Cover and cook on HIGH for 3 hours, or until vegetables are tender.
Stir together flour and cream or half-and-half; stir into soup. Cover and cook 30 minutes longer or until hot. If desired, sprinkle bacon bits over each serving.
