4 cups chicken or vegetable broth
1 cup heavy cream (or half-and-half for a lighter version)
Salt and pepper to taste
Optional garnishes: extra cheese, bacon bits, chopped green onions, or chives
Directions:
Prepare the Potatoes: Peel and dice the potatoes into even-sized pieces to ensure uniform cooking.
Layer the Ingredients: In the crock pot, place the diced potatoes at the bottom. Sprinkle the ranch seasoning evenly over the potatoes. Add the shredded cheese and crumbled bacon on top.
Add the Broth: Pour the chicken or vegetable broth over the layered ingredients, ensuring that the liquid just covers them.
Cook the Soup: Cover the crock pot and set it to cook on low for 7-8 hours or on high for 4 hours. The soup is ready when the potatoes are tender and easily mashed.
