Why we love this Instant Pot Potato Soup Recipe
While I have nothing against restaurant food - I love dining out as much as the next person - there's just something about homemade food that really hits the spot! And of course, there's the added benefit of having leftovers when you make this Instant Pot Potato Soup Recipe yourself!
Oh....and this Instant Pot Potato Soup Recipe has bacon, and who doesn't like bacon!? I guess vegetarians and vegans, but this recipe is clearly not for them....
This potato soup recipe reminds me of the baked potato soup you would get at restaurants like Chilis and Outback Steakhouse.
I love making potato soup at home - even those canned soups like Campbell's sometimes really hit the spot, right? They are so hearty and filling, potato soup is just one of those classic comfort foods, much like chicken and dumplings or chicken noodle soups!

Recipe is missing a couple of instructions:
when is the 2 cups of water used? didn't add it, doesn't seem to need it...
and the addition of the carrots is not in the instructions, either. I assume they go in with the potatoes.
