Here’s what you will need to make Ruby Tuesday potato soup at home:

This recipe is really easy to make but you do need a variety of ingredients for building the many delicious flavors in this tasty Ruby Tuesday soup.

We’ll start out with russet potatoes. These are a must because they work best for making a creamy base for our soup. We will also be using celery, onion, carrots, and green onion.

From the pantry you’ll need flour, vinegar, milk, salt, and chicken broth. To make this recipe cheesy and full of flavor we will add cheddar cheese, Monterey Jack cheese and cooked bacon!

How much does this recipe make?

This recipe is enough for about 2 bowls of soup. If you want to make a larger batch you can double or even triple the recipe. I usually make a double batch so that we can have some leftovers!

How to make an easy potato cheese soup:

Peel potatoes and chop into bite-size pieces about 4 cups total.

Combine the potatoes and vegetables with the chicken stock, salt, and vinegar in a large saucepan over medium heat. Bring the stock to a boil, then turn down the heat, cover the pan, and simmer for 20 minutes. 

Whisk together the flour and milk in a medium bowl. Remove the saucepan from the heat and add the flour and milk mixture. Put the pan back on the heat and simmer, uncovered, for 5 to 8 minutes or until the soup has thickened. Add 1 cup of Cheddar cheese to the soup and simmer until melted. Potatoes should be fork tender.

To serve, spoon into bowls and top with Cheddar and the Monterey Jack and sprinkle on the soup. Crumble the bacon and sprinkle it evenly on top of the cheese. Top off each bowl of soup with chopped green onion.

Pro Tip: If the soup doesn’t seem thick enough use instant mashed potatoes in small amounts to thicken the soup!
