Loaded Potato Soup Recipe | Faithful Provisions

Last night I made this Loaded Potato Soup recipe and my family loved it–even the kids scarfed it down! With all the potatoes from our CSA still hanging around, it was a perfect winter way to use them. Now, this is definitely a comfort food, but I found some ways to make it a little lighter and healthier without taking away the flavor.

Modifying this Recipe for Loaded Potato Soup

When it comes to modifying this recipe for loaded potato soup, there are a few modifications you can do to reduce fat, but still have lots of flavor:

  • Milk – Substitute cow’s milk for an unsweetened almond milk or a rice milk.
  • Sour cream – I used Greek yogurt to add more protein and less fat.
  • Bacon – You could opt for a turkey bacon, but we went full-on. This is one place I didn’t want to cut back!

Serves: 4 servings
Ingredients
  • 4-6 medium red potatoes, roughly chopped
  • 2 tablespoons butter or bacon fat
  • ½ medium onion, chopped
  • 2 cups chicken broth
  • 2 tablespoons flour
  • ½ cup sour cream (or plain Greek yogurt)
  • 1½ cups milk (we used unsweetened almond milk)
Toppings:
  • Cooked bacon crumbles
  • Shredded cheese (cheddar or Monterrey jack)
  • Chopped green onions
Instructions
  1. In a medium sauce pan bring water to a boil and drop in potatoes. Cook for about 20 minute or until tender with a fork. Drain, mash, and set aside.
  2. While potatoes are cooking, take butter (or bacon fat) and melt in a dutch oven or stock pot, then saute onions until translucent. Add flour and stir using a whisk for a few seconds, then add chicken stock.
  3. Cook for about 3-5 minutes until it begins to thicken.
  4. Remove from heat and stir in sour cream, salt, and pepper to taste.
  5. Add potatoes and combine.

    I have a quick question: when do I add the milk? It’s not in the instructions…
