Baked Potato soup is my all time favorite, I order it at every restaurant when it is available. You can’t beat how creamy this Baked Potato Soup is, and how great the toppings blend in. This recipe for Slow Cooker Baked Potato Soup, has a bit of prep work, but it is really worth the time. You can peel and dice your potatoes the night before, just place them in water, and refrigerate.
