awesome base, I added garlic, onions, celery, cheese (into the soup) and garnished with chives and real bacon pieces. I will try to make the roux with bacon drippings next time. :)

a friend asked if I could make potato soup without onions so I came to this site. I made the sauce and added mashed potatoes from last night, crushed two chicken boullion cubes, some garlic powder and onion powder. I used 1/3 cup of sour cream. He doesn't know about the onion powder but I used dry onion and powder when I know he wants me to cook for him . Raves and he is fine. (NOt a health thing)

A good start to a soup, must add more flavor! You can add every thing you like on a baked potato. To the base of the soup I added garlic powder, salt & pepper. Sprinkled sharp cheddar & crumbled bacon on top & serve.

My boyfriend and my son are picky eaters...and this was a huge hit in our house! I added some garlic and ham, just to make it more of a main course. This will be made a lot this fall and winter in our house! Thanks!

This is a good BASE recipe, but as many others have suggested, it needs SPICES. Into my rue I added--2 cloves of garlic, a quarter of a white onion, salt and pepper. At the end, it still needed more salt and pepper. I also had to add chicken stock base and two stems of green onions.

I am just learning how to cook, and this was really easy to make and turned out great! I gave it four stars just because I thought it need a little more flavor, I added green onions and a little bit of garlic. Delicious!

I loved this but did tweek it some. I used about 7 tennisball size new/red potatoes and about 5 cups of milk. I also spiced it up some with some parsley, garlic salt, lemon pepper, regular salt and pepper and also added some tastefully simple horseradish mix..that was good. I sauted onion in butter before making the roux and mashed the potatoes once the roux was complete. Very good,will definitely serve again!

This is such a good base recipe for potato soup. From it, I was able to add what our family likes...bacon, carrots, peppers and scallions, which I sauteed in the butter at the beginning. Very pretty presentation, and good way to get more veggies into your family. I also seasoned with Mrs. Dash. Perfect! Thanks for the recipe.

It's OK. Salt and pepper have to be added to improve the taste. Very plain, very thick (which is good). More like potato stew.

This was easy but it is a recipe for mashed potatoes not soup. So thick and bland as written. No one would eat it. I should have read the reviews first. This is only a five star recipe after lots of additions.

This recipe is one of my favs, made it yesterday and even my picky eater 13 yr old loved it. I gave it four stars cause I had to add a few touches, like adding more milk cause it was really thick and adding a few springles of salt. Also to kick it up I springled green oinions, shredded cheese and bacon bits on top of soup served in the bowl. Just lovely and filling.

Although this is a very easy, quick recipe the finished product is very bland (even after adding pepper, garlic, onion salt & cheese.) Next time I think I'll use a different recipe.

I made this recipe the other day and was amazed at how easy it was to make. It defnitely needs some additional seasoning, but you're allowed to tweak it to your particular tastes. A few sprinkles of season salt and garlic salt and this soup was good to go. One thing I changed is I only used 4 potatoes and I still got a pretty think soup. I'll make again.

This recipe is very good as written! I added a few things for our own preferences. I microwaved cubed potatoes and chopped medium onion together for about 6-8 minutes. I added a good spoonful of jarred chopped garlic to this. I added 4 or 5 slices of american cheese and roughly one cup of mozzarella cheese. Bacon would have been really good also, but I didn't want to take the extra time. All in all this was excellent! Will definitely make again.

Well, yes it was a buit bland. My wife and I made it two ways 1) with the basic recipe, my wife is Dietary Supervisor at the Local Nursing/Long Term Care Home, and the recipe was perfect for the residents. 2) We added some blenderized Jalapenos, Black Pepper, Cayenne, and crushed garlic and onions to the roux. Deserves 5 stars in my opinion because it is so easy to change for different tastes. We also canned 6 quarts to give our neighbors, everyone loved it.

This recipe was so easy and my husband and children just loved it!! This soup tasted as though you were actually eating a baked potato right out of the oven. I tweaked it a little to my liking by adding some crumbled bacon and definitely some salt and pepper to taste. Thanks for a wonderful recipe!!
