imitation outback potato soup

this potato soup for real is as good as the soup from Outback, and i am a stickler for potato soup. it is so good and ridiculously easy. here's the recipe. enjoy!

ingredients

1 30oz. bag of frozen, shredded hash browns
3 14oz. cans of chicken broth
1 can of cream of chicken soup
1/2 cup onion, chopped
1/4 tsp. ground pepper
1 pkg. cream cheese 

directions

Combine all ingredients in the crockpot except cream cheese and cook on low 6-8 hours.

One hour before serving add the cream cheese. I had a hard time getting the cream cheese to melt so I whisked it up, which helped. I'm not really sure why it wouldn't melt well, but I guess it might have been because it was generic and not Philadelphia...I am convinced Philadelphia cream cheese is the only way to go.
