This creamy potato mushroom soup is really SO simple. I made my husband taste it as soon as he came in the door from work, and he was VERY pleasantly surprised.
After just one bite, he was totally sold, and then he ate 3 bowls. It’s the perfect soup for the cold winter days ahead.
could i use left over baked potatoes for this recipe?
You could most definitely use left over baked potatoes for this recipe, however, we recommend adding them at the end, or omitting the potato baking time, in this recipe.
You could also use any kind of potato for this recipe. I prefer to use baby reds or russet potatoes, but you can use fingerlings or whatever you have on hand.
could this be made into a freezer meal?
This recipe could most definitely be made into a freezer meal. I will sometimes make a double batch, then place the other half in gallon bags, once it has cooled down.
I would eat it within 2 months of making.
could i make this soup recipe in a slow cooker?
You could most definitely make this recipe in a slow cooker, however, we recommend making it in a stock pot, as directed in the instructions.
Here is how to make it in a slow cooker:
Step 1: In a large saucepan, melt the butter on medium-high heat. Add in the mushrooms and saute until tender, about 5 minutes. Slowly stir in the flour until there are no clumps.
Step 2: Add the saucepan ingredients, into the slow cooker. Add in the beef broth.
Step 3: Add in the potatoes, to the slow cooker.
Step 4: Add in the half and half, and stir until well combined. Let cook on high for 3 hours or low for 6, or until the potatoes are soft. Stir every 30 minutes, as it cooks.
Step 5: Remove from soup and garnish each bowl with salt, pepper, and garlic salt to your liking and serve.

The picture shows the mushrooms sliced. Sliced or diced ?
could leftover bake patatoes work for this soup?
Baked potatoes should work but you will need to omit the potato cooking time since the potatoes will already be tender. Just make sure they are heated through in that step.
They are chopped. The sliced mushrooms are just for the picture.
Wonderful! I used ingredients I had on hand: sliced creminis, beef stock, heavy cream. I added a minced onion to the mushroom saute. Wicked fast, wicked easy, wicked delicious.
I would like to make it in a crockpot…how do I go about doing it???
