I made this for a potluck and got nothing but compliments. I didn't have pepper jack cheese on hand, so I just used cheddar and added a 4-oz can of diced green chilies to give it some kick, which seemed to work fine.

This is a lovely creamy and cheesy soup. I wasn't over the moon with the background taste of the onion soup mix. Next time I think I will use fresh onions and chicken broth. My husband thought it was great. I just used the wand blender and it worked great. Thanks for a very good recipe.

This really IS comfort food! The pepper-jack cheese and the onion soup mix make this soup so flavorful. I followed the recipe exactly as written and I wouldn't change a thing! It was just the right cosistancy after pureeing and adding the cheeses. Thanx for this recipe. I'll be making this many times this fall and winter.

This was great! We were in the mood for something different, and this definately fit the bill. Sadly we didn't have a blender with us (cooked this in an extended stay hotel) so I just tried my hardest to mash the chunks down a lot. Even without it being supersmooth-we enjoyed it.
