Can You Freeze Instant Pot Loaded Potato Soup 

One question I get asked a lot is can you freeze potato soup. The answer is, yes, but it will change the texture of the soup over time. The longer potatoes set in the broth and cook the softer they become. When you freeze and then turn around and warm it back up, it can make the potatoes break down, even more, turning into more of a mashed potato texture over formed pieces. While the texture is a bit different, you will find it still offers a pleasant taste and can be done. I just would recommend serving fresh loaded potato soup to guests and then if you do freeze and reheat eat yourself for lunches and dinners. 

A super easy soup recipe that is great for a weeknight meal, game day soup, or even to gift to loved ones who are sick or recovering from say a surgery. I haven’t come across someone who hasn’t enjoyed a big bowl of this soup.

  1. This is amazing! I will make my cubes bigger next time. Left the skin on the potatoes and it made it perfect!!!!! Thank you for the exact directions. This was my first time using my instant pot.

  2. Omg this soup is wonderful- thought I would like a thicker soup but it is amazing and the flavor is
    Out of this world! Will definitely save this for later.

  3. Sounds great! Looking forward to trying and thanks for sharing. On the note of why would recipes use a can of cream soup, etc…why not use regular garlic cloves and onion instead of powder…lol…

  4. I’m wondering, if I cook this for the entire 30 minutes, will the potatoes and carrots dissolve and make it naturally thick? We were impatient, so cooked it for 15 minutes, then gave it 3-4 pulses with my immersion blender, to sort of half-blend it. this gave us just the right thickness and a nice texture. We thought it needed a little something, so I took a page from your wonderful Broccoli Cheddar soup and added some hot sauce. It was so good, and we both liked the addition of carrots for sweetness. Thanks for another yummy soup.

  5. Could you tell me if the nutrition information is per serving or for the entire recipe? If it is per serving, what is the estimated serving size? Thanks!

  6. I have a Can Cooker that I bought for camping but also use in the home. Got the same results – great recipe. .
    Because of spaceand refrigeration limits when camping I pack Imitation Bacon Chips for my morning omelets. They worked just as well in this recipe.

  7. I use some creamy mashed potato flakes to thicken it a little and give it more flavor. I also add finely grated cheddar cheese……yummy.

  8. Hello, this recipe looks yummy! Can I use fresh diced potatoes instead? If so do you know what the timing would be, or would it stay the same? Thanks!

  9. This soup is amazing. The issue I have is the first two times it turned out great and now my cream cheese seems to curdles. Any suggestions on how to fix this?

  10. Meh, taste is good but cooking directions are off. Frying the bacon and onions in the IP only dirties one pot and adds flavor to the soup. Drain greese and deglaze with chicken broth before adding potatoes. Personally I think it’s too much liquid if you like thick soup so I cut that down. I also thought a full tbs of onion and garlic is way too much. Using a little more fresh onion and some fresh garlic instead gives a much better flavor.

  11. This is the best potato soup ever! I’m so glad I followed your recipe! We’re having a blizzard tonight, and this was such great comfort food. Yum, yum yum! Thank you!
