143 Reviews of Potato Soup

10 Stars! Made this for the first time on Super Bowl Sunday 2002 and YUM-YUM! Mashed about 1/3 and kept 2/3 of potatoes cubed - added diced carrots, used half "Half n Half" and half 2% milk ...... I would HIGHLY recommend this as it can be "customized" however you want! Anxious to make other variations......

    I was looking for a potato soup recipe and this is the first I tried. It was very easy to make and make adaptations to. It is great with bacon and green onions. I made it with fat-free condensed milk and with low-fat cheese. It was still wonderful. I will definitely keep this recipe.

    I made a double batch of this soup and added a medium onion and two cloves of garlic. It was easy and I thought it was really great. Of coarse potato soup is my favorite and this was the best that I have ever made. I am going to put in individual servings and freeze.

    Very easy to make. Be sure to stir continuously!! I added chopped onion and minced garlic. I left out the cheese and used it as a topping instead with crumbled bacon.

    I found that if you melt the butter, then add the flour and first half of the milk at the same time, you will not get lumps. The taste of the soup is good. Thanks!

    Really good recipe. I sauted some onion, celery and diced carrots first and added them to the soup. Definitely will make it to my recipe box.

    Very good! I added chopped onion with the butter and cooked it a bit before adding the flour. I used non-fat milk and it still came out very nice and creamy. It thickened up nicely after adding the potatoes. I continued to cook a bit after adding the cheese and potatoes (as opposed to the recipe calling for turning the heat off). I stirred in about 1/2 teaspoon dry mustard and a little more salt to bring the flavor out. Thanks for posting!

    Yummy! I added everything I could find...Bacon, brocolli,and sauteed onions & celery. Also, I use skim milk in everything and usually I would have expected a recipe like this to turn out very thin...but it wasn't! 5 Stars!

    Thank you for this delicious recipe; I love it! As I'm a vegetarian I made some changes: I used soy milk and soy cheese, and instead of butter used olive oil, and didn't used the chicken bouillon. But...it tasted GREAT! If I can make this soup anyone can.

    This soup tastes great. I omitted the chicken boullian and the cheese, because I wanted just a basic potato soup, like my Mema used to make. I had a pretty hard time getting the lumps out of the flour/butter mixture. I kinda had to smush the with my sppon as I was mixing. If anyone has a better was of doing this, please let me know. Also, this soup would be great topped with bacon bits. Jessica, Texas
