Very good recipe and looking forward to making this all winter. I had my doubts (instant potatoes??) but I was made a believer. Very good with scallions, bacon bits and shredded cheese on top.

So easy to make - my husband usually never bothers to eat leftovers, but he finished off the leftover soup! Very filling - great in the winter.

This is a WONDERFUL recipe. Incredibly easy and so tasty. My husband raved. I added just a little minced onion, salt and pepper. I also think half and half could be used in place of heavy cream. Thanks Raymond! This is a recipe I will use all winter long.

This receipe was so easy and delicious!! I made a few changes. I didn't use instant au gratin, I used the old box mix and just let it all simmer. I used fat-free half&half instead of the cream and added a pkg of fresh bacon bits for added zing - the family loved it!!

This recipe is incredible! I had to use Four Cheese potatoes instead of Au Gratin since my supermarket didn't have them, and it still turned out great! I added bacon bits during cooking, along with a few other spices, and I also added a little Velveeta cheese - it's insanely good! Have to use this recipe at my next get-together =))

The soup was absolutely delicious and extremely easy to make. If you are looking for something fast, easy, and yet leave an impression this is the soup. I added broccoli for personal taste.

A nice change from the ordinary potato soup! I used instant Betty Croker julienne potatos because that was all I had on hand. Also added onions & celery that I cooked in butter before combining ingredients. Was fantastic this way and I know without my added ingredients it's fantastic too!

Quick and easy and a real family pleaser! Doubled the recipes and had enough for the next night. At my daughter's suggestion I added steamed carrots and broccli to the soup the next night and was also great all in one bowl meal. Also used only 3/4 C 1/2 &1/2 instead of 1C cream and turned out fine.

I, too, used fat free half and half, and it turned out great. Very easy to make and so satisfying. Low fat shredded Cheddar and sliced scallions make this the perfect rich and creamy potato soup! A++

My family loved this recipe. I made one change that made it even easier. I used pre-packaged peeled and cubed fresh potatos instead of the dehydrated potatoes that came in the box.

This soup went over fairly well, especially considering how easy it was to throw together. I doubled the recipe, but I think next time I'll double all the liquid ingredients without doubling the potatoes. That will probably keep it from thickening up so much when warmed over. All things considered, I'll use this recipe again when something hot and nourishing is called for but time is at a premium. I'll definitely add the bacon and maybe even some sour cream next time.
