I used 15 potatoes because mine were pretty small. It does take forever to peel and dice that many potatoes! (Or maybe I'm just slow at it!) I liked the onion flavor, I used 4 small onions. I only used 1 lb of the velveeta, but thought it needed more so added another half pound of it, will def. add 2 lbs next time. Great recipe thanks for sharing.

I added some extra Velveeta cheese and the only the I added was a tablespoon of dijon mustard, which I add to all cheese soups. This is a great recipe, but I probably use a real cheese next time because I am not a fan of the processed cheese. Regardless of my personal preference, this is an excellent recipe and super easy too.

Yum! This was an awesome recipe. I didn't vary from the recipe except that I did add the extra cheese like Junebug said in another rating. It was so creamy and delicious. And it was super easy also. I would definately make this again.

WOW!! I've been looking for a simple potato soup recipe and I've found it! Thanks Junebug's Mom! This was very simple and quick to prepare. We loved it and this will now be a regular in our home. I 1/2 the recipe down to 6 servings. The only thing I changed is it called for 1/2 lb of Velvetta and I used the whole pound because we are cheese lovers. The hubby and I both ate leftovers for lunch the next day at work and we both had to reheat in microwaves. Reheated it was still very good and we didn't have to add water like you sometimes have to do with other soups. Nice creamy texture. Next time I may add a little bacon or ham (after the holidays with leftovers), but it is perfectly fine as written. Also be sure to read Junebugs comment about adding salt and pepper while boiling the potatoes and adding extra cheese if you wish. This is also something I can make quickly after getting home from work, so that's a big + in my book! Thanks for an awesome recipe Junebug!! :)

UH-Mazing! So simple and fast, took me about 30 minutes to complete! It was so tasty too, I fried up some bacon and added it just thought it'd taste good. Everything else i did the same, will be making this often! Thanks for the recipe!

We loved this! For me, the most time-consuming part was the peeling and dicing the potatoes- if you aren't a very efficient peeler/chopper, it may take you about 35-40 minutes to do that part. But the rest is so easy and overall it comes together quickly without much hassle. I used a 16 oz block of 2% Velveeta and skim milk, which I know isn't ideal but I thought it tasted fine- it was just thinner than it would have been had I used a milk with a higher fat content. Also, I had fresh dill on hand from another recipe so I used about 3T of fresh dill and it was great. Husband approved too! Thanks for sharing!

It's all been said, excellent soup. I added the dill just before it went on the table. This makes the flavor more intense. If you add it as the cheese melts, the flavor mellows as it cooks.

Bring on the comfort food! Woozers, this is good. I don't usually like dill, but I really like it in this recipe. Used a bit less Velveeta & garlic powder for the 2nd addition of salt. I scaled it to 3 potatoes, and mashed them a bit. I also don't peel, I like potato skin. It's so good!

What can I say that hasn’t been said? This is a great recipe, with great taste and texture. M’Lady actually thought that I had added cream to the dish! This will definitely be made again and again in this household. We are eager to try this with other cheeses, too.

I guess I was hoping for something different than our family potato soup. It was good though.(love potato soup!) I added more dill and I still didn't taste it. Maybe it's me. DH said he noticed the difference.

This was really good, but I think the pepper should be less at first, or don't add more to it after boiling the potatoes. Otherwise, this is good, my husband and I both enjoyed it! :)

Thank you for sharing this recipe! I put too much milk so I added some instant potatoes to thicken, a bit of garlic powder and my husband requested some bacon bits to put on top. I didn't have any dill, but if I missed anything, I sure didn't taste it! First cold day after Summer and yummy hot soup for dinner. I'll make this again and pass it along as well!
