How to Make Cheesy Potato Soup for Two in a Crock Pot
Aunt Lou here.
Everyone should have access to this soup, no matter how many servings you need, so I converted our favorite Crock Pot Cheesy Potato Soup into a recipe for two. When I made this recipe with only two servings, there was a bit of an uproar in my house. You see, we have two adults and two kids. We had a business evening of practices and running. We got home and there were only two servings available of this soup, and everyone wanted them. (All of a sudden, the rest of the food available was not wanted!) My solution? I started a batch of this recipe with 6-8 servings on the stove top at 8:45 at night. This soup is really just that good.
As a bonus, this soup is pretty inexpensive to make. The ingredients are either things you might already have in your house or items that are pretty cost effective. When you combine the low price point, how easy this is to make and how great it tastes, this is a soup you will want to make again and again.
(If you would love to make this incredible recipe, but you need more servings, you can find the original recipe with 6-8 servings here.)

I love your crock pot recipes for 2. I know that summer isn’t far away – but sometimes a hot cup of soup on a chilly summer morning is a great thing to have. I have a Cuisinart crock pot that I can brown in because you said that you had a browning crock pot and I totally love mine. Thanks so much for posting yours and Michaels recipes.
