Follow The Directions

01

Step
5 mins

In a slow cooker, add the bite-sized potato chunks. (5 minutes)

02

Step
5 mins

In a separate bowl, combine the American cheese, finely chopped onion, condensed cream of celery soup, salt, and pepper. (10 minutes)

03

Step
5 mins

Using the empty soup can, measure out 2/3 can of milk and stir it into the cheese mixture until well combined. (2 minutes)

04

Step
5 mins

Pour the creamy cheese mixture evenly over the potatoes in the slow cooker, ensuring they are well coated. (3 minutes)

05

Step
2 mins

Sprinkle the paprika evenly over the top for a touch of color and flavor. (1 minute)

06

Step
5 hrs

Cover the slow cooker and cook on HIGH for 4 to 5 hours, or until the potatoes are tender and easily pierced with a fork. (240-300 minutes)

For a richer flavor, substitute half of the milk with heavy cream.
Sharp cheddar cheese can be substituted for American cheese.
If you like a bit of heat, add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the cheese mixture.
To prevent sticking, you can lightly grease the slow cooker before adding the ingredients.
This dish is even better the next day! Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
