By martha-2

Ingredients

• Ingredients:
• 1 (30 oz.) bag frozen hash-brown potatoes (I use the squared, southern style)
• 2 (14 oz.) cans chicken broth
• 1 (10.75 oz.) can cream of chicken soup
• 1/2 c chopped onion
• 1/3 tsp. ground black pepper
• 1 (8oz) package cream cheese (softened)
• Garnish: minced green onion

Preparation

Step 1

Directions:

1. In a slow cooker, combine potatoes, broth, soup, onion, and pepper.

2. Cover, and cook on low for 5 hours.

3. Stir in cream cheese, cook 30 minutes, stirring occasionally, until combined.

4. Garnish with green onion.
I followed the recipe exactly.

You could even have a "toppings bar" at your party, letting your guests choose from all sorts of toppings for their soup...shredded cheese, chives, bacon bits, sour cream, etc. Then serve with crackers or bread.
