SLOW-COOKER POTATO SOUP

Steps:

• Place potatoes, broth, garlic, salt and bay leaf in a 6-quart slow cooker. Cover and cook on Low until the potatoes are very tender, about 6 hours. Turn off the slow cooker.
• Remove and discard the garlic and bay leaf. Add half-and-half and pepper to the potato mixture; mash using a potato masher, leaving some chunks.
• Pour half of the potato mixture into a blender. Secure the lid on the blender and remove the center piece to allow steam to escape. Place a clean towel over the opening. Process for 10 seconds. (Use caution when blending hot liquids.) Return the blended soup to the remaining potato mixture in the slow cooker; stir to combine. Ladle evenly into 6 bowls. Top evenly with cheese, yogurt, scallions and bacon.

LOW SODIUM POTATO SOUP

Steps:

• Place chopped pork belly pieces in a large pre-heated Dutch oven or soup pot over medium heat and cook until bacon is crisp.
• Remove bacon pieces and set aside, leaving bacon fat in the pot.
• Add butter and chopped onion and cook over medium heat until onions are tender (3-5 minutes). Stir 2 or 3 times.
• Add garlic and celery and about 1 minute.
• Sprinkle flour over the ingredients in pot and stir until blended to make a roux.
• Add diced potatoes, chicken broth, milk, heavy cream, pepper, and chipotle chili powder to the pot. Stir to combine.
• Bring to a boil and stir occasionally. Cook until potatoes are tender when pricked with a fork (about 10 minutes).
• When getting puree reduce heat to simmer. Choose either to use an immersion blender or stand blender and puree about half the soup. (about 6 cups) I personally recommend the hand immersion blender.
• Return the pureed soup to the pot if using a blender. Add sour cream and reserved bacon pieces, stir well.
• Allow soup to simmer for at least 15 minutes before serving. I like to let it low simmer for a good half hour.
• When serving sprinkle with additional sour cream, bacon, cheddar cheese, or chives on top. Optional
