Here’s the deal: most “loaded” potato soups are basically gut wreckers, packed with garlic, onions, and heavy cream. This one? Cozy, creamy, and Low FODMAP–friendly.

You’ll get all the comfort food vibes without the bloat, and it’s quick enough to make on a weeknight.

Why This Low FODMAP Loaded Potato Soup is Gut-Friendly

Lactose-free dairy keeps the creaminess without digestive drama.

Gluten-free flour thickens the soup but stays gut-friendly.

Garlic-infused oil swap means all the flavor without the FODMAPs.

Potatoes + corn bring fiber and comfort in every spoonful.

Why Low FODMAP? What does it mean?

If you’re new to the Low FODMAP world, here’s the quick rundown: FODMAPs are certain types of carbohydrates (found in foods like garlic, onion, beans, and wheat) that can be tough to digest.

For people with sensitive guts or IBS, they can trigger bloating, gas, and discomfort—aka the opposite of cozy.

The Low FODMAP diet was originally developed by researchers to help people with IBS find relief by limiting these hard-to-digest foods. The goal isn’t to cut out everything forever (that would be lame and impossible), but to swap in gut-friendly alternatives that still taste amazing.

That’s exactly what this Loaded Potato Soup does:

  • Garlic flavor? → handled with garlic-infused oil (no FODMAPs, all flavor).
  • Creaminess? → thanks to lactose-free milk and cheese.
  • Comfort food vibes? → oh, they’re still here, big time.

So you get all the classic cozy potato soup feels—without the gut drama afterward.

Serving Suggestions

This Low FODMAP Loaded Potato Soup is hearty enough to stand on its own, but if you want to make it part of a bigger meal, here are some gut-friendly ideas:

  • Pair it with a side salad → Keep it simple with mixed greens, cucumbers, and a drizzle of olive oil + balsamic.
  • Serve with gluten-free bread or crackers → Perfect for dipping and making sure you get every last drop of soup.
  • Add extra toppings → A little extra shredded cheese, lactose-free sour cream, more bacon, or fresh green onion tops takes it up a notch.

This soup is also meal-prep friendly, so make a double batch, portion it into containers, and enjoy cozy lunches all week.

Ingredients

  • 1 tbsp garlic-infused oil

  • 1 tbsp avocado oil

  • 1 heaping tbsp gluten-free flour

  • 2 1/2 cups water

  • 2 tbsp Better Than Bouillon Roasted Chicken flavor

  • 1 1/2 cups lactose-free milk

  • 1 cup organic corn (frozen)

  • 1 (12.5 oz.) can cooked chicken, drained

  • 2 cups Yukon gold potatoes, cubed

  • 1/4 cup cooked bacon pieces

  • 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese (lactose-free if needed)

  • 1 tbsp chopped green onion (green tops only)

  • Salt & pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Heat garlic-infused oil and avocado oil in a large pot over medium heat.
  • Add the gluten-free flour and whisk for 1–2 minutes to create a light roux.

Notes

  • Tips for Success
    Want it creamier? Mash a few potatoes in the pot or use an immersion blender briefly.
    Not a bacon fan? Try turkey bacon or leave it out—it’s still plenty hearty.
    Cut the cook time in half by par-cooking the potatoes in the microwave first. If reheating, add a splash of milk or broth to loosen it up.
  • Storage
    Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 4 days.
    Freezes well for up to 2 months—just skip the cheese and add it fresh when reheating.
