Easy Instant Pot Loaded Baked Potato Soup

Okay, now that Christmas is behind us and all the presents are unwrapped and oohed and aaahed over, I can tell you about one of my favorite gifties for my sweet daughter.

She is the proud owner of an Instant Pot (maybe you got one over the holidays?) and she loves it, and while I have done my darnedest to keep writing Instant Pot recipes that we can both make, the nice folks at Simon & Schuster sent me this lovely cookbook…

I Love My Instant Pot Affordable Meals Cookbook

…which is not only full of delectable Instant Pot recipes, they are also affordable!  What could be more perfect for my newlywed daughter and her sweet husband?

Of course I needed to try it out first, and since one of my sweet son-in-law’s favorite recipes on my site is my loaded potato soup, I figured I would give this Instant Pot version a try.

We’re talking bacon.  We’re talking cream cheese and cheddar cheese.  We’re talking creamy, dreamy deliciousness in two shakes of an Instant Pot.

I started to consider keeping this cookbook all for myself, but I selflessly wrapped it up and popped it under the tree, where it was soon unwrapped with much happiness.

And so while I will keep figuring out new Instant Pot recipes for us all to try, check out this lovely cookbook.   Here’s that loaded baked potato soup recipe to whet your appetite!
