Awesome Soup!! I boiled the potatoes, instead of baking them (I used a bag of baby russet potatoes), half of the basil & pepper, and kept everything the same. (Except, I made BLTs to go with it, didn't have enough bacon for the soup, so I used the bacon drippings still & topped it with real bacon bits). It was SOOOOOOOOOOOO good!!! Will definitely make again!!

Mayo 1/3 C Sugar 2 Tbs White Vinegar VERY, VERY GOOD!!! (Might even decrease the sugar to 1/4 C)

I made these for 10 servings, using the Allrecipes Calculator. They turned out perfectly!! The only thing is that when I changed the servings, it said to use 1 & 1/4 tsp salt...when I tried the sauce before I poured it on top, it was salty. However, when the potatoes were done, they were perfect!! (I just didn't put any salt & pepper on top on my own plate). Very good recipe!!
