EXCELLENT. I have never tasted anything better. Rich, creamy, and delightful. I did cut the amount of bacon half.

Really good.Taste better the second day after sitting in fridge. Also, sprinkle cheese over top makes it perfect.

Very good, my family enjoyed it. I added the green onions in with the butter to cook about 3 minutes before adding the flour.

AMAZING!! I was a little concerned that this might turn out like mashed potatoe soup but it was quite good. I took the advice of some other members and used a small amount of bacon greese when making the roux. I also put the green onions in while I was adding the milk and added one bay leaf for flavor.

Delicious, but so rich. Didn't realize what a huge amount of butter it was until I saw it in the pot! I used skim milk, light sour cream and 8 slices Turkey bacon--slightly less fattening and still tasted super rich. It needed salt though (1 tsp. worked). To cut the baking time for the potatoes, do 10 min. in the microwave (poke w/ fork first, of course) and then 20 min. in the oven at 375. By the time I had cooked/crumbled the bacon and added the broth and milk to the roux (following another reviewer) the potatoes were ready.

The onions need to be cooked longer. It would probably be best to just cook them separately. Saute in oil for 10 minutes works great. Otherwise it was good; I added 2 chicken breasts.

Better than a restaurant! Potatoes really weren't all that soft in the middle so used an immersion blender to make the consistency better before I added the onions, cheese and bacon. This made it thicker and smoother so I added more milk and a bit more cheese.

I doubled the recipe, took it to a potluck, and didn't bring any leftovers home. Success! I cooked the green onions in the roux before adding the milk, just to soften them up. I used whole wheat flour, because that's all I had, and it gave the soup a hearty look and texture. I made it the day before and didn't want to re-heat the sour cream and burn it in the crock pot, so I just provided sour cream to add on the side. The one drawback to me was that baking the potatoes and then scooping them out of the skins took way longer than I expected. Next time I do this, I'll probably boil the potatoes after peeling and slicing them, to cut down on prep time.

The taste of this soup is wonderful but WOW is it thick and rich! I used diced baked potato (skins included), omitted the bacon, and subbed mozzarella for cheddar. Looking forward to the leftovers, but I'll be thinning them with chicken broth...

This recipe was awesome! I had to make one minor tweak to it and that was using 2 cups of chicken stock and 4 cups of milk, mainly cause of not enough milk. I have to say, I think the chicken stock rounded the base of the soup out. I wasn't expecting the soup to take on the lard quality that it did, but it was good all the same. I merely added a splash of milk or stock and it came out fine. I presented it with some sprinkles of cheese, dollop of sour cream and sprinkle of green onion. Boyfriend rates it "F'in good, keep the recipe."

ABSOLUTELY FABULOUS!!! I had this recipe at my moms house and she sent me here! I did not change much except I added a small clove of Garlic, Minced to the base. I had to double it up to feed my clan and did the Chives, cheese, Bacon and sour cream on the side...Just like a baked potato in a bowl....

My sons loved this, absolutely loved it! My older one ate it for breakfast and took it in his lunch, that is how much he loved this soup. I'd give it 5-stars except I thought it was really starchy. I know potatoes ARE a starch, but somehow baking them brings it out in a way that didn't work for me as much as it did for my boys!
