Did you know that soup recipes are the number one “searched” food recipe online?  And in the potato recipes category potato soup is the top request.  Potato soups of all types:  Chunky potato soup, creamy potato soup, crock pot potato soup, and the list goes on and on.

The reason  potato soup recipes are so popular is because they are simple, fast, easy and quick soup recipes to make and they taste good.  Potato soup is a healthy and hardy soup.  This site is filled with good soup recipes, many different potato soup recipes.

The simple yet tasty potato soup is a favorite of young and old.  It is the best soup for my money.  I have lived in New York and Colorado so I have always been on the lookout for winter soup recipes that you could make in a slow cooker and eat all during the day.  Maybe enjoy a large soup cup after you shovel the snow off the driveway!

Cream of potato  soup is my favorite.  It is an easy potato soup recipe that everybody seems to enjoy.  The recipe above is an easy crock pot recipe.  Anybody can make it.  Slow cookers or crockpot recipes are all set and forget recipes.

At one time in my life, when I was much younger, I was toying around with the idea of becoming a vegetarian.  Maybe even a vegan.  For those of you that don’t know  the difference between a Vegetarian and a Vegan I will give a short explanation.

Vegetarian:  Somebody who does not eat red meat at all.  Some vegetarians will eat chicken and fish.  Vegetarians have no problem drinking milk, eating sour cream, or digesting any other food that comes from animals.  They just shy away from eating the animal.

Vegans: Vegans don’t eat any meat. They don’t eat chicken or fish. If it breathes they don’t eat it. They also don’t eat any food items that come from animals. No sour cream, no butter, and no milk. Vegans substitute animal food items with other more natural choices.

My experiment into becoming a vegetarian did not last long.  I love hamburgers and steaks.  I also like sour cream better than tofu!  But once I learned how to make a baked potato I fell in love with all types of potato recipes.

But have no fear my friends–vegetarians can eat this Slow Cooker | Crock Pot Potato Soup without sacrificing their vegetarian membership card.  The occasional recipe will call for bacon (yum) but normally it can be left out of the recipe without much sacrifice.

Vegetarian crock pot recipes are just as good as “normal” crock pot recipes.  You can cook vegetarian to you hearts content.  We are going to call this potato soup recipe one of the quick and easy vegetarian recipes.  Just remember to not add the bacon.

This crock pot potato soup can be made for vegans also.  If you want vegan soup and you want it to be vegan easy, then you are going to have to sub the normal ingredients for ones that you approve of.

I like fast cooking.  How about you.  Fast cooking to me means that you are able to assemble all of the ingredients quickly, toss them in a pot, and forget about it.  That is what crock pot or slow cooker cooking is all about.  You cook fast.  It is a quick kitchen dream come true. 

In today’s hectic world with everybody being so busy, having the skills of a quick gourmet is priceless.   Nobody wants to work in the kitchen all day.  If you want to do that you should go to a cooking school.  Most people I know, me included, want what we are cooking quick to be a foolproof  crock pot meal.  Or at least a good side dish recipe.

Today a quick busy family deserves quick healthy meals and this cream potato soup delivers.  With all the scary news out there about tainted food and food that is contaminated it is good to know that you can easily make homemade food.  This homemade soup is a recipe is more or less made from scratch so you don’t have to worry about getting sick from it and it is nutritious.

The really great thing about cooking with a crock pot or slow cooker is that just about everything you cook is a make ahead recipe.  The cooker will keep it warm as you nibble throughout the day.  And don’t talk to me about leftovers.  The batches you make are large so there are always leftovers.  Just heat up and you have a snack or the next days lunch.

To cook in a crock pot really is fast, cheap, and easy.  A crock pot dinner will make everybody seem like a celebrity chef!

Let me talk just briefly about the crock pot slow cooker I use.  For me the Rival Slow Cooker is the best one on the market.  I have used a Rival for as long as I can remember.  So I see no need to change at this stage in the game.  I’m sticking with the Rival Crock Pot.  You can whip up some really great tasting potato bacon soup in a Rival…

I really do enjoy this recipe of crock pot potato soup.  It is the type of comfort food that just seems to hit the spot.  I hope you enjoy this potato recipe.

A great potato dish to go along with the Crock Pot Meatloaf:

Delicious Mashed Potato Recipe

Crock Pot Potato Soup

If you have any comments or suggestions on the Crock Pot Meatloaf recipe please feel free to send them to us.

Is it any wonder that meat loaf is America’s favorite ground beef recipe?  Well it is next to the king of the hill, “The Hamburger”.   A good meat loaf recipe is something that just can’t be beat.  Not only is it a quick simple dish to make, but it is also a inexpensive, or cheap if you will, main course.

The best meat loaf I remember eating was the one my wife made the year that we got married.  I’ll tell you I married one quick gourmet.  And without a doubt she knew how to make meat loaf. 

I think I remember this particular meatloaf because she made it in a slow cooker or crock pot right after she cooked the creamy potato soup.  When it came to cooking meals on a budget, she was the queen.  Really a “World Champion”.

Of course cooking meatloaf for dinner doesn’t seem like that big of a deal.  But if you don’t have money to go out to eat and want some of the side dishes that go along with a loaf recipe then all of a sudden the nights menu starts looking mighty good.

Anyway, we had potato soup, mashed potatoes, and sweet potato biscuits.  All for under $6.00.  This was a few years ago but still quite a bargain and filling. 

While my wife was cooking dinner I was watching TV.  It sounds kind of like a sitcom!  But when it was time to mash the potatoes I was in the game.  I like to use a potato ricer for mashed potatoes.  Much easier than those hand mashers and you don’t get the lumps.  Hint:  I love to put garlic in my mashed potatoes!!

In my opinion the best meatloaf recipe is a quick, simple, and basic loaf recipe.  It makes for a great dinner, easy lunch, super leftovers, and it tastes good hot or cold.

We have now been married for a while and my wife still cooks meatloaf.  And my wife’s meatloaf recipe is still delicious.  I will never complain.  I think it makes it a easy kitchen day for her when she cooks in the crock pot or slow cooker.  And if she is cooking at home it should be easy.

A few last thoughts about the easy cooking meat loaf recipe.  Like I said you can make it ahead, eat it as leftovers, and it truly is one of the easy simple recipes.

If you look comfort food up in the dictionary you will see a big picture of a meatloaf.  I’m not kidding.  Any homemade recipe that you can make from scratch and cook it in a crock pot should have a picture in the dictionary under comfort food.

My wife’s dinner menu has expanded quite a bit since the early days of our marriage.  She went from knowing “How To Make Meatloaf”  to becoming one quick gourmet.  She can make just about anything…And she does.  Usually in a crock pot or slow cooker.

Now I will be the first to admit that you don’t have to attend cooking school in order to be a good cook.  Who really cooks those recipes that you see the top chefs making on TV or in those glossy magazine?

Cooking recipes should be able to be made by the average person.  The recipe shouldn’t be so difficult that it requires a special education to prepare.  Cooking potatoes or cooking meat is basic.  You make good, healthy, nutritious meals for yourself and your family with simple ingredients.

Of course easy cooking in the microwave is another alternative.  If you are in a hurry and need a quick meal then the microwave is the way to go.  It is not my first choice but I do use it on occasion.  Sometimes I will bake a potato in the microwave simply because it is quick.

Get your meatloaf pan out and start cooking the slow cooker | crock pot meatloaf recipe.

Happy Reading—

Russet Potatoes

Russet potatoes have a high starch content with low moisture.
These potatoes bake mealy and fluffy, and are the best choice for mashed potatoes and baked potatoes.
Medium starch potatoes include Yukon Gold and Yellow Finn potatoes. They aren’t as fluffy as russet potatoes, but have great flavor. Yukon Gold potatoes, especially, taste buttery when cooked.
Potatoes with a low starch content and high moisture include red and white potatoes. These potatoes are most often boiled or roasted and used in potato salad because of their creamy texture. They hold together well after being cooked.

Sweet Potatoes and Yams

Sweet Potatoes and Yams are actually two different tubers. Yams are a member of the lily family, and sweet potatoes are members of the morning glory family. In the United States, you’re almost always buying sweet potatoes; true yams are not very available. There are moist fleshed sweet potatoes and dry-fleshed potatoes. Both have lots of beta-carotene and potassium. They can be baked like russet potatoes, made into fries, or mashed. Sweet potato pie is another favorite recipe made from these tubers.
For the best baked potatoes, long slow cooking is best. The skin becomes very crisp and turns darker because the starch just below the skin converts to sugar, which browns in heat. Make sure you cut a slit in the potato as soon as it comes out of the oven so the interior doesn’t steam, which makes a heavier consistency.

Twice Baked Potatoes

Twice baked potatoes are easy; they just  require a little time. Bake the potato until tender, about an hour, then remove the flesh from the skins. Return the skins to the oven to keep them crisp while you make the filling. Then add the filling ingredients – cream, butter, cheese, seasonings – whatever you like; beat the filling, then refill the potato skins. Bake until the potatoes are beginning to brown and crisp.

Mashed Potatoes

Mashed potatoes can be made from russets that are boiled or roasted. I myself prefer roasted, because I think it intensifies the potato flavor. The starch in the potatoes, once again, absorbs water and swells during the cooking process. Then when the potato is mashed or riced, the cells break open, releasing more starch, which makes the potatoes creamy and smooth. If you boil your potatoes for mashing, return them to the hot pan after draining and shake over medium heat for 2-3 minutes to dry the potatoes. Whatever the cooking method, add butter first when you begin mashing. That coats the cells and the starch so they absorb less liquid, making the potatoes less gluey and fluffier. For the actual mashing process, I prefer a potato ricer because it makes the smoothest mashed potatoes. Cook’s Illustrated also prefers a ricer because it causes less damage to the cells.

French Fries

French fried potatoes are a bit more difficult to make at home. Frying them twice gives the best results. The potatoes must be dry when they are fried, or the starch will absorb the water on the surface and won’t seal the potatoes so they will absorb grease. Greasy french fries are NOT desirable! Cut your fries from russet potatoes and place in a bowl of ice water as you work. This helps prevent the potatoes from changing color. Heat oil or vegetable shortening to 325 degrees. Dry the potatoes thoroughly in some paper towels. Cook the potatoes for 6-8 minutes until they become limp and just begin to change color. Remove from the fryer and let stand for 10 minutes. When you want to serve the fries, heat the oil to 350 degrees. Add the precooked potatoes and cook about 1-2 minutes until fries become golden brown and slightly puffy. Remove from the oil, salt, and serve! And here’s a tip if you like to bake french fries: chill the potatoes in the refrigerator overnight the day before you want to make them. This changes some of the starches to sugar, which then makes the potatoes more brown, even in the lower, more indirect heat of the oven.

Hash Brown Potatoes

Hash brown potatoes are easy to make from scratch. Make sure you grate the potatoes just before cooking them, or else they will change color, turning pink or brown. This happens because the sugars in the potatoes oxidize, causing the color change. Russet or high starch potatoes are the best for hash browns. Grate them in a food processor or on a hand grater and dry thoroughly by squeezing in a kitchen towel. Season them to taste and cook in butter and olive oil, pressing the potatoes with a spatula as they cook. When golden brown on the underside, flip the potatoes and cook until dark golden brown.

Roasted Potatoes

Roasted potatoes are simply cut into chunks and tossed with olive oil and seasonings, then baked at a high temperature, stirring once during cooking. I like to leave the skins on my roasted potatoes, but you can peel them if you like. These potatoes cook more like french fries, with the starch on the surface sealing the potatoes, making a crispy crust (even on cut sides) and a moist, tender interior. Bake potatoes at 400 degrees for 40-60 minutes until they are as brown and crispy as you like.

Scalloped Potatoes

Scalloped potatoes can be made with russets or low starch red potatoes. Russets will be more tender, and red potatoes will be firmer; the choice is yours! Slice potatoes 1/8″ thick for the best texture and most even cooking, and try to get the slices the same thickness so they cook at the same time. Potatoes can be cooked in cream (see Potatoes Grand Mere) or in a thin white sauce, or for the easiest sauce of all, thinned condensed cream of mushroom soup.

Hopefully this article also help to clear up some of the questions that keep getting asked about the difference between Sweet Potatoes and Yams.

No matter which Potato use choose to use for your Potato Recipe…Just remember this:

• All Recipes for Potatoes are Easy, Simple, and Quick Recipes!
• Most Potato Recipes can be “make ahead” recipes.
• A soup cup of potato soup is better than any other soup out there.
• A homemade potato recipe is the easiest homemade food you can make.
• As far as food recipes are concerned, potato recipes make the easiest foods.
• As a Side Dish Cooking Recipe, nothing beats a good Potato Recipe.
