This recipe is FANTASTIC! The only reason why I'm giving this four stars and not five is because the recipe definitly needs a few tweaks. For the broth, I used cream of chicken, chicken broth, milk and SOME water. I really think if I used all water it would have been a tasteless soup. I plan on making this soup again and again! Yummy1

I think this is a great base for a potatoe soup. i would make this again. As with any soup you have to make it to your liking but before adding any other spices i tasted this as is and i must say for a simple soup it is good and great for those picky children. after I added some rosemary and lemon spice. i also added some minced garlic and I had some shredded zucchini and celery. My chicken had been bbq'd previously so I just took the chicken off the bone and it made for a quick and easy meal. thanks for sharing

I love preparing soup from scratch. This is by far the very best basic recipe I've ever made! If I could give it 10 stars, I would. I boiled 2 whole chickens then picked it from the bone, I added a bag of mixed frozen vegies (not canned), 1 can cream of chicken soup & 1 can of cream of mushroom soup. My clients loved it & my family said, "This is GREAT!" This is definately a keeper.

This recipe was good but there wasn't much flavor. I added cheddar cheese right before I ate it and it added A LOT more flavor. I had to cook my potatoes about 30 mins more than the recipe said. Good if you don't have many ingredients but defiantly not the best.

A good basic recipe. I ommited all the vegetables and added shredded cheese. I think I combined the basics of this recipe and the basics of another souple, golden potato soup on this website. Sounds like a good soup though

Awesome soup, but with a few modifications: substitute cream for milk, 4 cups of chicken broth for water, and add one can of cream of mushroom soup. Also add kosher salt and lots of pepper, and onion powder and garlic powder. I added chopped celery and leeks as well, and omitted the peas. Definitely be sure to simmer this soup for a while so that the potatoes can get mealy- this thickens the soup nicely. My whole family loved this soup and went back for seconds!

Oh this was a great recipe!! My son picked it out and what a hit! We added more vegetables and used chicken broth instead of water and it was yummy! Will do this again. Sending it to my other son away at college. Easy enough and inexpensive enough to make on his budget.

This soup was easy to make and truly delicious. U can vary the thickness of the soup by controlling the amount of water and milk. It was very soothing and satisfying. A must make!

This is a good basic recipe that can be tweaked according to personal preference. I personally used fresh baby carrots and frozen peas. I also added a splash of heavy cream to make it richer and thicker. The soup turned out rich, hearty, and perfect for this cold snowy day. Thanks!

I tried to like it, but it was so bland. There was no flavor, and I even tried some of the other suggestions. Sorry, but I'll look elsewhere next time.

Excellent. I used cream instead of milk- and mashed half of the potatoes with the cream and a little broth. When I added that back to the main mixture- wow!

Loved this recipe! I added a little bit of heavy whipping cream to make it creamier and some seasonings so it wouldn't be bland. I also added some fresh zucchini and a jar of mushrooms. Excellent!

A very good quick, easy, and very hearty stew. Perfect if you're in a hurry. I added a little bit of chipostle salsa on top to give it a little bit of extra smoky flavor and spice.
