Prep the potatoes — wash and cut them into bite-sized chunks. No need to peel unless you prefer to.
Layer in the slow cooker — toss potatoes with Lipton onion soup mix, butter, and a splash of water or broth.
Cook low and slow — let your slow cooker do the work for about 4–6 hours until the potatoes are tender and flavorful.
Add creaminess — stir in sour cream or cream cheese near the end for that rich, luscious finish.
Garnish and serve — sprinkle with fresh herbs for a pop of color and fresh flavor.
Tips and Variations
For an extra cheesy twist, add shredded cheddar or Parmesan cheese before serving.
Swap out the Lipton mix for homemade onion soup mix for a fresher, less salty option.
Add cooked bacon bits or sautéed mushrooms for more texture and flavor.
Use sweet potatoes for a sweeter, heartier version.
