tasty and easy. Added left over ham. Bonus 🙂
Very good, and will make it again this week. I’m going to try all your recipes listed here. So glad you have a site now. Thanks Christian. Mary Jo
Hey there! I cannot wait to try this soup. I was just wondering, the best way to divide the recipe for 2 people? Thanks!
I don’t usually have evaporated milk. Can I use regular milk? tia
Made the soup tonight. WOW!! That was so easy I was afraid I might have messed it up. The husband suggested maybe adding broccoli next time. (And there WILL be a next time!!)
Can’t wait to try this one
We LOVE this recipe. My husband has always loved potato soup, and I’ve found most recipes to be more work than they are worth. The simplicity, the taste, the fact that it uses shelf stable dairy, all make this a new go-to food choice! We add some bacon bits on top at the end for a little bit of salty crunch and it is good to go!
Delicious! My slow cooker was in use so I did this on the stove top. It thickened up beautifully and used up some of the massive container of processed cheese slices from my fridge – bonus points! My family was very happy!! 🥰
