Easy Potato Soup & Cider Recipe

January 12, 2019 by Kelly Dedeaux

Comforting and Easy Potato Soup & Cider Recipe - a quick, delicious meal from Idahoan® Steakhouse® Soups #AD #IdahoanSoups

Thank you Idahoan® Steakhouse® Soups for sponsoring this post. Enjoy the flavorful, slow-cooked taste of restaurant-quality soup at home, in minutes.

While I’m grateful to live in a place warmer than Utah now, it’s still been plenty cold here lately with a bit of freezing rain this month. I don’t know about you, but when it gets cold I have even less of a desire to spend forever cooking – but, we still have to eat, right? Luckily we can still make a delicious and comforting (aka: nice and warm!) meal with this Easy Potato Soup & Cider Recipe! with hardly any effort required, you can whip up a family-pleasing dish in practically no time at all, meaning more time you can spend wrapped up in that blanket.

Comforting and Easy Potato Soup & Cider Recipe - a quick, delicious meal from Idahoan® Steakhouse® Soups #AD #IdahoanSoups

Okay, so maybe us moms don’t ACTUALLY have time to just lounge around wrapped in a blanket – but you know I’m gonna try to stay as comfy and bundled as possible once the temperatures get into the 30’s and 40’s here! That’s one reason this meal is so perfect – the apple cider cooks in your slow cooker a few hours, making the house smell like cinnamon and deliciousness. Meanwhile the Idahoan Steakhouse® Soups cook in just 5 minutes, and are full of flavorful seasonings and rich cheeses – not to mention real Idaho® potatoes – giving you a creamy, hearty flavor with every bite. All you have to do is add water, making it about as easy as a quality meal can be!

Comforting and Easy Potato Soup & Cider Recipe - a quick, delicious meal from Idahoan® Steakhouse® Soups #AD #IdahoanSoups

Are you in for several weeks of chilly weather in your area? Don’t worry, you can enjoy more than one tasty meal that’s easy to make and brings warming comfort to your family because Idahoan Steakhouse Soups offer a variety of great flavors, such as Loaded Potato (which we enjoyed for this particular dinner), Creamy Potato, Cheddar Broccoli (my favorite!!) and Cheddar Potato. So many options to choose from, but since they’re quick to cook maybe just whip up a variety and let your family test out their favorites!

Comforting and Easy Potato Soup & Cider Recipe - a quick, delicious meal from Idahoan® Steakhouse® Soups #AD #IdahoanSoups

Apple Cider Recipe

Ingredients

  • Large Container Apple Juice
  • 3-4 Cinnamon Sticks, plus some for garnish as desired
  • Caramel Syrup, if desired

Comforting and Easy Potato Soup & Cider Recipe - a quick, delicious meal from Idahoan® Steakhouse® Soups #AD #IdahoanSoups

Directions

  1. Pour the apple juice into your slow cooker.
  2. Add 3-4 cinnamon sticks.
  3. Cook on low for 3-4 hours, stirring occasionally to spread the cinnamon flavor throughout.
  4. When serving, add a bit of caramel syrup as desired – enjoy!

Comforting and Easy Potato Soup & Cider Recipe - a quick, delicious meal from Idahoan® Steakhouse® Soups #AD #IdahoanSoups

When your cider is close to done, grab your flavor choice of Idahoan Steakhouse Soup and follow the directions on the back. For our Loaded Potato, I simply had to boil 4 cups of water (for 1 package), whisk in the contents of the pack, lower heat and simmer (uncovered) for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Then remove it from the heat and let cool about 5 minutes. That’s all it takes, guys!

Comforting and Easy Potato Soup & Cider Recipe - a quick, delicious meal from Idahoan® Steakhouse® Soups #AD #IdahoanSoups

I’m a huge fan of things that help make our busy lives easier, so of course I not only love the great, slow-cooked, full-of-flavor taste of Idahoan Steakhouse Soups – but also being able to give my family restaurant-quality soup right in our home in just minutes! They really help make comfort easy, despite the chilly temps outside.

25 Slow Cooker Desserts & Pastries

March 31, 2021 by Kelly Dedeaux

25+ Slow Cooker Pastries & Desserts

Growing up, we never made slow cooker desserts. That was for making roast or soups and such, not for more ‘unique’ things. It was a HUGE eye-opener when someone first told me they made brownies in theirs – I was totally on board for trying new things in my own! Since then I’ve tried various deliciousness, but one of my favorites (maybe because it still seems so cool to me) is making treats. If you’re up for cooking something new, try one of these 25+ Slow Cooker Desserts (and pastries) for yourself!

25+ Slow Cooker Pastries & Desserts

With the weather finally starting to cool down, maybe you’ll try a rich hot chocolate. Or perhaps a s’mores cake or fruit cobbler are more your preference. Whatever you choose, it’s super fun being able to whip up a tasty dessert in your slow cooker with hardly any effort at all!

I love easy meals, don’t you? I especially love them when it’s cold or stormy outside, like it is this week in Texas. TONS of rain and thunderstorms! Nothing says ‘comfort food’ to me than a nice soup in a yummy bread bowl. To warm us up, why not a Slow Cooker Enchilada Soup?

Kitchen Hack!

Save yourself some time peeling large garlic cloves with this awesome kitchen hack – take a bulb of fresh garlic and break it up just a bit (like at the top pointy part). Place between two metal bowls and shake aggressively a minute. Your individual garlic pieces should be nice and divided from that annoying, flaky outside layer.

Recently we had a lot of ‘date night occasions’ – there was New Years, our anniversary, and soon it will be Valentine’s Day. Lots of reasons for delicious dinners! Since we’re keeping our food budget low and our time is crunched, it’s lucky we can make our favorite Slow Cooker Chicken Marsala in hardly no time at all, and it still comes out delish!

Slow Cooker Marsala Chicken / by BusyMomsHelper.com

Many of you probably remember that one of our favorite dishes is marsala chicken – and while we often make it the ‘old fashioned’ way, I’m thrilled that now I can make it even when I’m in a hurry! Great for those days we want a romantic dinner at home, but can’t spend forever in the kitchen.

Tomatillo Dressing

May 1, 2015 by Nikki Cole

Tomatillo Dressing by Nikki Christiansen for Busy Mom's Helper

Hey it’s Nikki with Busy Mom’s Helper, who here likes sweet pork?  It is one of my favorites! I love going to Costa Vida and getting their sweet pork burrito, but it can get expensive so I found a good copy-cat recipe. To spice it up more I added this Tomatillo Dressing that makes it more moist and adds a lot of flavor.

Tomatillo Dressing by Nikki Christiansen for Busy Mom's Helper

Ingredients

  • 3 tomatillos
  • 1 bunch cilantro
  • 1 tsp garlic salt
  • 1 lime
  • 1 packet hidden valley ranch dressing
  • 1 cup buttermilk

Directions

1. Cut into smaller pieces the tomatillos and cilantro and place in blender.  Remove the skin from the tomatillos, most of the time the skin will fall off on its own or its really simple to peel off.

2. Add in the garlic, ranch, and buttermilk.  If you don’t have buttermilk just add 1 cup milk and 2 tablespoons butter.

3. Cut the lime in half and squeeze juice into the blender.

4. Blend well, I usually blend only half the cilantro with everything for about a minute then add the rest, scrape down the sides, and blend for another minute or two.

Serve cold over any dish! I especially love it with my sweet pork burrito, but it is also great on salads as well – I have even put it on rice.
