This soup was good! Not great but definitely good! I made a batch and gave it to my daughter with her Christmas gifts last year! Something easy she can grab and take to work for an easy lunch or anytime when you need to warm up! Can be easily tweaked! I threw a handful of cheddar cheese in mine!

    This is really good. My older kids seem to like it. I will be making this for gifts for our family and friends. I like that fact that is something that the kids can fix for themselves if they need a snack or quick meal. My husband finally tried and loves it. I now keep a gallon jar of it on hand.

    I used the instant mashed potatoes from Gordon's Food and the soup was much too thick with 1/2 cup mix to 1 cup of boiling water. I used 1/4 cup of the mix and it was much better. I also tried one batch using creamora instead of dried milk and it was very creamy tasting. We are using it when we go camping. It is very good. Glenda P.

    I was amazed by this. After making a test batch for the family, this was our Christmas goodie to give to the neighbors. It's great with a little parmesean or cheddar cheese.
