This idea was good, but I like my potato soup to be a bit more flavorful. I added about a cup and half of fresh mushrooms and sauteed them with one bunch of chopped green onions. To make the soup base go farther without losing flavor, I added an extra can of condensed potato soup. I also added the cup of milk as suggested, but I also included 8 oz. of vegetable stock and half a packet of stroganoff seasoning to enhance the flavor. If you wish yours to taste a bit more rich (like me) I added a tablespoon of butter into the broth. It was delicious and I will definitely make it this way again. This soup is hearty and will definitely leave you satisfied, especially if you bake up some cornbread muffins on the side.

this was great! Next time i make a soup like this, i am not going to use a can of soup mix

Very tasty! I made it without the cheese to cut down the calories and it's still very good.

This is a great and hearty soup. Good for those stormy days.
