Description

A creamy and flavorful potato soup loaded with cheddar cheese, garlic, and herbs for a comforting meal.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 large potatoes, peeled and diced
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 4 cups chicken or vegetable broth
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 1 tsp dried thyme
  • 1 tsp dried rosemary
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh parsley for garnish

Instructions

1. Melt butter in a large pot over medium heat. Add onion and garlic, sauté until softened.

2. Add diced potatoes and broth, bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer until potatoes are tender.

3. Use a potato masher to slightly break down the potatoes for a creamy texture.

4. Stir in heavy cream, cheddar cheese, thyme, and rosemary. Cook until cheese melts and soup thickens.

5. Season with salt and pepper. Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.

Notes

For a richer flavor, use sharp cheddar cheese.

Add cooked bacon or green onions as a topping for extra texture.

Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
