Made for 6 servings. Tripled the amount of garlic called for. At the point where the recipe says to add milk and bring to boil - there wasn't really enough liquid. Added the water/boullion at this point to get all veggies under the liquid level to cook them. Came out perfectly - veggies were not too hard, not too mushy.

Should just be called potato soup. I could barely taste the tomato at all.

A very good hearty soup. I had to cook it quite a bit longer than specified here though, my potatoes and carrots were still raw at the end of the 20 minutes. Still, when it was done, it was delicious!

Wonderful taste - rich and creamy soup, but with the lovely chunks of healthy veges. Didn't change a thing except that I replaced chicken broth with plain water to cater for a vegetarian guest. I didn't think it was necessary to make vege stock separately since it would have been the same ingredients anyway! Didn't detract from the taste at all. Made it twice already for company, and my guests were impressed.

This was really really good, I loved the broth. I added kidney beans (which didn't do much for the flavor), and smoked sausage (which was good). I think next time I'll put some cut up squash or zucchini and maybe mini meatballs.

I wasnt paying attention and forgot to add the broth, but it still came out great! Also, I didnt have canned tomatoes so I threw a few fresh ones in the food processor and used that instead (added them before the milk). I think this recipe is a great one to have printed in your kitchen bc you can easily substitute ingredients and make it with whatever you have on hand (as long as you have potatoes). This one's a keeper. Thanks!

we enjoyed this, but it definitely needs a bit of tweaking. i love stew type soups, but this was really stodgy! i scaled it down for 4, which required half a can of tomatoes, but i ended up chucking in the lot. i might omit the cornstarch next time and see if that helps. i also threw in a handful of elbow macaroni. next day when reheating it, i added some white wine and some water to it to give it a bit more liquid consistancy, and added some lemon juice and it made a world of difference. i served it sprinkled with grated cheese. think i'll add some red bell pepper next time for a slightly fruitier taste too.

It sounded better than it tasted! We had some but I don't think I'll be serving this one again, sorry.

One of the best soups I have tasted! I added spicy turkey sausage and only used one onion instead of two. Two seemed like overkill. Very flavorful and was great over some Italian herb polenta.

A good recipe, but it wasn't a 5-star. Good flavor, consistency. It will take longer than 20 minutes of simmering to soften the potatoes and carrots.

This is a great recipe though I did make a few changes. Instead of butter I used olive oil to saute the onions and garlic. I used 1 1/2 onions instead of two. I used two 14oz cans of diced tomatoes (pureed). I shredded a pre-cooked whole chicken. Instead of italian seasoning I used only basil. This was so creamy and I never needed to add the corn starch.

pretty good. I put it in the crock pot. Used tomato sauce because I didn't have paste. Also cut up 3 bacon slices and added it for a smokey flavor.

I'm always looking for recipes I can adapt to the crockpot and make dairy-free for my dairy-allergic family. This one did beautifully! Didn't even bother sauteing the onions, etc., just threw everything (including vegan margarine and soy milk) into the crockpot and let it simmer on low setting for the entire day. Turned it to high, stirred in the cornstarch with a little extra cold milk and let it sit for another half hour. Very tasty the first day and even better the second - thank you for sharing!

I gave this soup 3 stars, my husband gave it four. I'll defer to his rating since I'm always impressed when he likes something vegetable-based and am willing to give bonus points for that. But I thought it was just average.

Very tasty! I did follow the first reviewer's suggestion & added a pack of diced smoky links. Yum! I also went ahead & put in the whole 6 oz of tomato paste, rather than 2 T. It worked great. It calls for salt & pepper to taste. I ended up adding about a 1 1/2 t. of salt & 3/4 t. of white pepper. This is a really good recipe. I'll definitely make it again.

My chef husband said that it was delicious! I added a sqeeze of lime and some hot sause to give it a little kick. Used fresh seasonings. Will definitely make again and again.
