The Pioneer Woman
Have you ever craved a potato soup that’s more than just potatoes and broth? For years, my homemade potato soup attempts were exactly that – watery, bland, and frankly, disappointing. I used to simply combine milk, butter, onions, celery, and potatoes, hoping for the best. The result? Let’s just say it was far from the creamy, flavorful soup of my dreams.
Then, I discovered The Pioneer Woman’s Perfect Potato Soup recipe, and everything changed. This recipe, shared by Ree Drummond herself, is a game-changer.

Seriously, this Pioneer Woman potato soup is in a different league. It’s unbelievably creamy, rich in flavor, and incredibly comforting. Even my husband, who isn’t a big soup fan in general, absolutely loves it. That’s how you know it’s truly exceptional!
I’ve made this recipe countless times, and each time it’s a hit. One crucial tip I learned early on: don’t skip the blending step. The first time I made it, I lacked a blender or food processor and decided to proceed without blending. While still good, it wasn’t the same. Since then, investing in a food processor has been a game-changer for my soup-making, especially for this potato soup. The blending step is what elevates the texture from good to outstandingly creamy and smooth.
If you’re considering getting a food processor, I highly recommend the Black and Decker Food Processor. It’s a versatile kitchen tool that I now use for so much more than just soup. It’s truly indispensable!

The Pioneer Woman Potato Soup – Best Potato Soup EVER!
While the Lodge Dutch oven is incredibly practical, I also have my eye on the Flowered Dutch Oven from The Pioneer Woman’s collection. It’s just so beautiful and would add a touch of charm to any kitchen!
