I was very skeptical the entire time I was cooking this. The recipe does not specify to dice the onions, firstly, and then it probably ought to say that the roux mixture needs to thicken rather than just saying "until warmed through". And so I had little hope for this soup...BUT, it was GREAT!! I hoped for a creamier soup and so I ran about 2 cups through the blender and then I also took another reviewer's advice and added a can of corn, but my review of 5 stars stands before the corn was added (that was just an afterthought...it is not needed).

This soup was just ok. I used fresh parsley instead of dried, and real butter in place of margarine. After adding additional bouillon and sprinkling some sharp cheddar on top there still wasn't as much flavor as I was hoping for. It still made a very pleasant supper. Maybe I should have let the roux get a little toastier?

This was really, really good. I think I upped the carrots a bit and upped the chicken bullion a little, but this was just the potato soup recipe I was looking for-- one without heavy cream or bacon! I used lactose-free milk.

A good basic cream of potato soup. I used salted butter and chicken base, and thought it still needed a bit more salt. Also, I left out the thyme and added a little garlic powder. It tasted even better the next day. Will definitely make this soup again.

This was an excellent potato soup. The thyme adds a gourmet touch to this dish. My only adjustment to this dish was to use skim milk and to add a little salt. A keeper recipe!

This always turns out to be good comfort food at it's best. I sprinkle a little bit of Poultry seasoning in with the chicken base. Thanks for this recipe.

This soup is fabulous!!! I added 3 minced cloves of garlic for a little exra kick. A GREAT recipe! I substituted half the milk for heavy cream but it made the soup very thick. Next time I'm going to just use milk like the recipe calls for.

It's the thyme that makes this recipe so good. I think the chicken broth version tastes a lot better than the vegetarian version using veggie stock. I thought both versions were good though. This is a recipe that is in regular rotation in my household. I love it!

Excellent soup! I didn't have enough milk, so, like another reviewer, I used a can of evaporated milk. I think that actually made it more creamy. I, too, sauted one celery stalk (with the leafy top) with my onion. A great soup, thanks Cyd.

I didn't have chicken boullion so I used one can of chicken broth, and added half of a vegetable broth cube to the water, broth, vegetable mixture. I also used a can of evaporated milk with the regular milk. Delicious!

I love this recipe, super easy. The only thing I reccomend is increasing the water to 4 cups and decreasing the milk to 2. Also, instead of chicken buillon use vegetable stock. I also didn't bother with the thyme and parsley. This recipe is a guaranteed success.
