Tips and Variations

• How can you make potato soup taste better? Add a pinch of cayenne or smoked paprika for a subtle kick. A dollop of cream cheese can also elevate the creaminess.
• Want it vegetarian? Substitute chicken stock with vegetable broth and skip the bacon. You can add roasted green chillies for a smoky flavor.
• Slow Cooker Option: Combine all ingredients (except cream, sour cream, and toppings) in a slow cooker and cook on low for 6–8 hours. Stir in cream and sour cream before serving.
• Thickening Tips: If the soup isn’t thick enough, mix 1 tablespoon of cornstarch with 2 tablespoons of water, then stir it into the soup and simmer until it thickens.
• Storage: Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. To avoid curdling, they should be gently reheated on the stove.
