I tweaked this recipe and it is so easy and awesome! I used 5 to 6 potatoes, 3 cans chicken broth, 1 to 1/2 cups of carrots, and 1 onion. Then, after the potatoes and carrots were done cooking, I put 8 to 10 ounces of shredded cheddar cheese. I took it off the burner a minute or two after I added the cheese. And I did NOT mash the potatoes. It's so delicious and didn't take me very long. I even left most of the skin on the potatoes. I just took off the eyes and any dark or bad spots. This saved me a lot of time. Thanks for the basic recipe idea!

Awesome! All I added was a splash of cream, montreal stk seasoning and used real cheddar cheese and real bacon. Sprinkled with a few chopped green onions on top.

This was delicious! I used the cream cheese as suggested in one review because I didn't have any cheese spread, but otherwise followed the recipe and it was terrific! My picky eaters loved it and I'll have to triple the recipe in the future.

This recipe was amazing. If you have kids and they wont eat the onion, try blending it so its more like a puree. It was absolutely delicious!!!

I really liked how this turned out. It wasn't a very, very long preparation, and that worked well for me. I just needed a way to get rid of some half cooked potatoes. This soup was the answer. Of course, since this was a meal saver, I wasn't prepared. You may laugh, but I didn't have: 1. Chicken boullion; but I replaced it with beef bouillon (uhhh is that okay?) 2. That cheese spread with bacon; I replaced it with shredded cheddar cheese and bacon bits, LOL :D (Now that is NOT okay, haha! ) 3. A potato masher; I just used an egg beater... '~' I am a kitchen amateur. This is the first recipe I've done on this site!!! I just joined allrecipes yesterday so I could improve my cooking and baking, so by the time school is back in session, I'll be good enough for Thanksgiving & Christmas baking... I hope... :) Thank you so much Ms. Hugg for posting this recipe. Even an amateur like me could make this taste good!

This was really easy to make with a very satisfying flavor. I used cream cheese and 6 slices of bacon. I also added garlic powder, black pepper and a little bit of salt.
