Ingredients
  

6 medium-sized potatoes, peeled and diced

1 medium onion, chopped

3 cloves garlic, minced

4 cups low-sodium vegetable broth

1 cup heavy cream (or coconut milk for a dairy-free option)

1 teaspoon dried thyme

1 teaspoon paprika

Salt and pepper to taste

1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (optional, for topping)

1/2 cup green onions, chopped (for garnish)

Crumbled bacon (optional, for topping)

Instructions
 

Prep the Vegetables: Start by peeling and dicing the potatoes, chopping the onion, and mincing the garlic.

    Combine Ingredients: In your slow cooker, add the diced potatoes, chopped onion, minced garlic, dried thyme, paprika, salt, and pepper.

      Add Broth: Pour in the vegetable broth, ensuring all the potatoes are well covered.

        Slow Cook: Cover the slow cooker and set it on low heat for 6 to 8 hours, or on high for about 4 hours, until the potatoes are tender.

          Mash the Soup: Once cooked, use a potato masher to mash the soup to your desired consistency - you can leave it chunky or make it smooth.

            Add Cream: Stir in the heavy cream (or coconut milk) and let it cook for an additional 30 minutes on low heat.

              Season to Taste: Adjust seasonings if necessary, adding more salt, pepper, or spices as desired.

                Serve: Ladle the hot potato soup into bowls and top with shredded cheese, crumbled bacon, and chopped green onions for garnish.

                  Prep Time: 15 minutes | Total Time: 6-8 hours (cooking time varies) | Servings: 6-8 bowls.
