Ingredients

10 unit Bacon
8 cup Russet Potatoes, diced
1 unit Medium onion
3 unit Garlic
2 cup Vegetable Broth
2 cup Water
1 tsp Salt
1 tsp Pepper
1 tsp Thyme
1 tsp Sage
3/4 cup Heavy Whipping Cream
1 cup Shredded parmesan cheese
1 cup Shredded cheddar cheese
4 unit Green onion

Instructions

  1. Step 1. In a pan, cook bacon on the stovetop until desired tenderness. Chop roughly.
  2. Step 2. While bacon is cooking, peel and dice potatoes in ½ inch cubes. Finely chop onion. Mince garlic. Slice green onions.
  3. Step 3. Set crockpot to low. Add chopped bacon, diced potatoes, vegetable broth, chopped onion, minced garlic, salt, pepper, thyme, and sage. Add 1-2 cups of water (add less water for thicker soup). Let cook on low for 7-8 hours.
  4. Step 4. After cooking for 7-8 hours, remove the lid and mash some of the potatoes. The more you mash, the thicker the soup will be. Add parmesan and slowly stir in heavy whipping cream; mix until cheese is melted. Cover the crockpot and let simmer for an additional 10 minutes.
  5. Step 5. Serve by topping with cheddar cheese and garnish with green onion.
