I made this soup for a large group and had all compliments and several requests for the recipe. I used a suggestion from another member to use instant potatoes instead of cornstarch. Excellent.

I love this soup! It has a smooth texture and cheesy taste! Very easy and quick soup recipe! Leftovers are great too! I thickened with potato flakes like other reviewers as well-made it very quick and easy! Thanks for sharing!

Good tasting soup! I cooked the onion and celery in a little garlic infused olive oil before adding other ingredients and used a can of evaporated milk and one can water. Got "thumbs up" from a teenager - will definately make again.
