How to make this Easy Cheesy Potato Soup on the Stove Top

First to make this easy recipe all you have to do is boil the water and add the chicken bouillon cubes. Let dissolve and then add the celery and potatoes. Cook for about 15 minutes until the potatoes are tender.

Next you add the cream of chicken soup cans, cubed cheese, and additional water. Keep stirring until the cheese is melted and simmer. Do not let it boil. Add a little bit of salt and pepper to taste and heat until hot throughout and serve!

Additional Toppings and Sides for this Cheesy Potato Soup

We topped ours with additional shredded cheese and some Oyster Crackers. Feel free to add some chopped up bacon or chives on top for some extra flavor! I also made some Irish Oatmeal Muffins (recipe coming soon) which was super tasty as a side. Rolls or French bread would taste great, too!

Can you freeze this Potato Soup?

Yes absolutely. This recipe doesn’t make the biggest portion to start with but can always double to freeze some for next time. I have been freezing sauces like my Dad’s Slow Cooker Spaghetti Sauce and my Instant Pot Steak House Chili in Zip Lock bags once cooled so that they lay flat in the freezer.
