Fantastic. My husband loved it. The only thing I added was cheese on the top.

This recipe is fantastic and I got a lot of compliments. As suggested by another user I used a leftover ham bone to make broth (cover and boil for a couple hours) and used that instead of water. I also doubled the broth amount that it called for to make it more soupy. I am dairy free so instead of using butter and milk to make the rue I simpy used Earth Balance and coconut milk and it turned out great! The last thing I did different was to use my handheld blender at the end just to blend it a little, but it made a fantastic finish in texture and flavor. Enjoy!

Excellent. I am not a big fan of creamy soups but my boyfriend loves them. We made this last night after working late. We added a small carrot and a few diced mushrooms. It was really tasty and it is so good with crusty bread. I sauteed a medium onion in butter and then added the flower and milk. Will make this as starter soup for Christmas. Thanks for the great recipe!

This was the BEST I have ever made! It is so easy it is amazing! I made it just like it is written and it came out great! I added cooked bacon bits and cheese on top!

Went exactly by the recipe and it was great. It's even better if made a day ahead as it thickens up and the flavor blend together. Definitely a keeper.

This soup is simple and delish! We ended up adding an extra 1/2 cup of ham. Will be making again this weekend!

We absolutely love, love this soup. The only thing I do different is to use chicken broth instead of water and bouillon granules. Also, if you use red potatoes the potatoes hold up a little better and don't break down so much. My four year old literally licks her bowl when it's done!

Just made this for the hundredth time and it is still a family favorite! Perfectly delicious and doesn't need a thing. One thing I do a little differently is mash the pototes with a masher a few times - makes the soup thicker.

Just made this using a leftover Honeybaked Ham from Thanksgiving and it was fantastic! The only modification we made was adding a handful of shredded carrots and using a box of chicken stock in place of some of the water and chicken bouillon. This will be made again and again - even my picky MIL loved it!

this was simple and easy. I don't like celery so I did not add it, but did add a small bag of frozen corn. It was delicious!

This soup was sooooo good. My fiance LOVES potato soup and she says this was better than the one at her favorite restaurant. Can't wait to make it again.

My family (and friends) absolutely love this soup! I always add a little more celery/potatoes/onions just to make it a little more hearty and I like to add carrots as well. To really put it over the top, I sometimes add crumbled up bits of cooked bacon and maybe some sour cream to the pot as well! (Or top off each bowl with a dollop of sour cream, the bacon and a little shredded cheese to really add pizazz!) So yummy!
