Instant Pot Loaded Potato Soup

November 26, 2018 by Kristin Leave a Comment

Craving comfort? This soup tastes like you’ve been slaving away at the stove all day, but only takes minutes! 

With the Holidays here, I don’t know about you but my schedule has been crazy busy. Trying to get the kids to their school programs, decorate the house, Holiday baking, shopping, and more….not much time has been focused on dinner. Thank goodness for my Instant Pot because I can have dinner on the table in no time, with little to no work involved!

As I have mentioned before, my hubby isn’t a huge soup fan. So sad, right, lol?!! If I do make soup, he prefers them hearty and more stew like. He does however LOVE chowders and potato soups so I knew he’d enjoy this.

Last week, I whipped this up from start to finish in about 15 minutes and all of the kids and hubby scraped their bowls clean. Everyone took leftovers the next day in their thermos’ at school and work too! Not only was clean up a breeze (one pot), but since I saved time on dinner prep/cook, I was able to get more accomplished in my day!

I love a loaded soup, so I added crumbled bacon, cheddar cheese, and green onions. If you’re not a fan of one (or all) of those though, you can easily omit! May I even suggest a dollop of sour cream on top prior to serving??!! However you load it up, it’ll be a hit!

Best part, if leftovers aren’t your thing, you can always stick in an airtight container and freeze for a later date!

Enjoy and be sure to let me know what you think if you try it! Tag me on Instagram or use #thecookinchicks so I can see your tasty creations too!!
