8ounce packagebaconcooked until crispy and then crumbled
Instructions
Add potatoes, onion, chicken broth, butter, salt and pepper into the crockpot. Stir to mix.
Cook on HIGH for 5 hours, or until potatoes are fork tender.
Using a potato masher, mash the potatoes until the desired consistency. Alternately, if you want it super creamy you can use an immersion blender (I usually do this!).
Add half and half, sour cream, shredded cheese and bacon and cook for 10 more minutes, or until creamy and cheese is melted.
Serve in bowls and enjoy! Garnish with fresh chives, additional sour cream and cheddar cheese if desired.
