The weather was damp and cold outside today, and this was the perfect soup to warm me up! I didn't have any ham on hand, so I used 1/2 lb of bacon and it was sooo tasty!! Thanks!!

Great recipe! I covered the potatoes with chicken broth, cut up the onion and let it simmer. Save yourself some steps, no need to sautee the onion first, or even strain the onions out. They will be well blended by the time the soup is done. I did not use flour, if you let it simmer enough, it will thicken up nicely. I mashed up the potatoes right in the pot, so I had a nice mix of mashed/cubed potatoes. I almost skipped the milk, like some suggest-but after tasting it before/after it really needs the milk to get the right flavor/consistency! I cut back on the cheese to about 3/4...this recipe was wonderful and even my picky 10 year old loved it. I almost skipped on adding the velveeta-I didn't want a cheesy soup-but I swear this is the "secret" ingredient in potato soup. Very delicious!!

This is delicious! The changes I made were only adding 1 onion, and 1lb. of Velveeta. The leftovers did not last long. I will definitely make this again!

Eleven grams of fat is a LOT less than many of the recipes AR calls 'healthy'. And look at the detailed nutrition...very good. The most unhealthy thing about this recipe is the sodium.

This soup was good. I wish the water measurements were more precise however. The soup was a little thin but overall very tasty. I had to add some salt otherwise it was a little bland. Husband liked it and it was something new to try.

This recipe was fantastic! My family loved it. I also simmered the ham bone for the soup stock. I also added a lot more ham than the recipe called for. I will definately make this again!

Husband really enjoyed it. "Too many potatoes" was his comment. We might make it again, depends on how much ham we have left over after the next holiday meal. I followed the comments from other readers and skipped the "flour and milk" directions. Right amount of cheese. Also, I used chicken broth instead of water. I think this makes a huge difference in flavor.

This soup is excellent! I brought it to a family potluck and the kids chose this soup over pizza! :) I came back home with an empty pot and a request from a mom for this recipe! Thank you so much!

This soup was delicious. My boyfriend absolutely loved it. I didn't have enough cheese so the next time I make it, it will definitely taste better.

This is great comfort food! I rarely buy Velveeta so used grated sharp cheddar instead. Added 2 smashed garlic cloves and some parsley. Served with the Sky High Yorkshire Pudding recipe from here. YUM!

I started with stewing a ham bone with carrots, onions and celery. I used the broth to cook the potatoes and followed the recipe after that. I served it with whole grain dinner rolls. My whole family loved this soup! The leftovers did not last long!

This was very easy to make. I halved the recipe and it still made enough for an army. I added a large handful of sharp cheddar cheese and it tasted much better and next time I would use bacon instead of ham. It had my 20 month old asking for "more youp" for days!

I didn't have Velvetta so I used shredded cheddar and instead of flour I used a package of country gravy. It was so cheesy and delicious!
