A couple weeks ago, I had a craving for something hearty & yummy for my belly. I wasn't really in the mood to slave over the stove & we were going to a friends house that night, so I wanted to take something easy. I found this recipe and figured it sounded delish, as well as simple, so I might as well try it out.
It was just that. Incredibly easy and VERY yummy. Both husbands devoured it, the kiddo loved it and I may or may not have gone back for seconds as well. I did grate up some cheddar cheese to throw on top, but it was great without it. PLUS, it's a weight watchers recipe, so it only has 151 calories per serving. Making that second helping a little more guilt free. If you're looking for something quick and easy to throw into the crockpot, this Ham & Potato soup is a must for a cold winter night!
7 c. diced potatoes (about 4 medium)
1 c. diced onion (about 1 medium)
1 large carrot, chopped
2 c. ham, diced
5 c. hot water
1 Knorr Chicken Bullion cube (extra large size that makes 1 quart broth or 4 small cubes that make 1 cup each)
1 c. 2% milk
1/2 c. sour cream
Salt and Pepper to taste
Directions:
Add diced potatoes, onion, carrot, and ham to a crock pot. Dissolve chicken bullion in 5 cups hot water, then add this to the crock pot also. Cook on low 7 hours, or high 3 hours. Then add milk and sour cream. Stir and cook an additional 15 minutes. Add salt and pepper to taste. Makes twelve 1-cup servings.If you'd like a thicker soup, just before adding milk and sour cream, remove 2-3 cups of the potatoes and slightly mash, then return the mashed mixture to the crock pot.
Makes 12 Servings (About 1 Cup Per Serving)

Looks really yummy. :) And nutritious.
I've just made some macaroni cheese - that is also something simple :)
It looks delicious!!! Thank you and your husband for your service to our country!
looks good.....can you make it so we can post it on pinterest?
Super yum! I used Canadian back bacon instead of ham and it added a bit of a smoky flavour. No extra salt required, either :-) Had it in the crock over night and I'm tempted to have soup for breakfast. Cheers!
I used chicken broth and it turned out a little bland. However I added cheddar/jack cheese and it turned out really good. I think next time I'll add corn and/or maybe broccoli and bacon on top! Thanks!
I love this recipe! I've included it in a roundup of potato soup recipes on my blog honeyandbirch.com. :)
