The “Loaded” Creamy Potato Soup

Potato soup is the ultimate “hug in a bowl”—creamy, starchy, and infinitely customizable. Whether you like it smooth and velvety or chunky with “loaded” toppings, the secret to the best texture is using a mix of Russet potatoes (for thickness) and Yukon Golds (for buttery chunks).
