Yummy! I used Cheddar instead of Swiss and it was great. I also didn't have celery, and it turned out just fine! Thank you!

good soup! I was told that this is one of the best things I have ever made. Thanks for the great recipe. I will try with smoked cheddar next time.

This is a delicious recipe. You can add almost any veggie you have on hand like broccoli, corn, or some mixed frozen veggies. I used shredded muenster chees and it was delicious!

This was a very good potato cheese soup! I used chicken broth instead of veggie, Cheddar instead of Swiss (since my husband HATES Swiss), added an extra potato, and omitted the carrot. I also cut my potatoes into smaller chunks than the recipe states so I didn't have to do as much mashing. Note that I cut down on the salt & pepper as suggested by other reviewers, but then ended up adding more of both later, so next time I'll use the s&p amounts as stated. This soup was good on it's own, but even better with some crumbled bacon added when it was served. YUM! I'll definitely make this again!

Very good soup! I liked the Swiss cheese instead of the usual Cheddar. I did not add the tsp. of salt as there is plenty in the broth, and I also used low-sodium Swiss cheese and then let people salt as they wanted. I used a hand masher to slightly mash the ingredients. Great for a cool evening.

This was pretty good. I used a mix of Jarlsberg and Cheddar. I might try it with Gruyere. The cheese seemed pretty mild, and all that really came through was the vegetable stock. I think I prefer other potato soup recipes I've found, in general. This just seemed kind of boring.

Very good potato soup recipe. I omitted the carrots and celery and it still came out wonderful. Nice 'n' thick and creamy! Warms you right up on a cold, chilly night.

Okay, not as good as I expected after all the rave reviews, I don't think I'll even eat the leftovers. I will keep searching for a better potato soup recipe.

Just let me say that I am not the biggest swiss cheese fan, well, I wasn't the biggest swiss cheese until now. This soup is fantastic. I was sooo leary about the swiss, and as others stated, it really is tasty in this soup, in fact I wished that I had bought more, so that I could add more. My 11 yr. old ate 3 helpings! I used skim milk, added a few pieces of left over broccoli, chopped, & 1/4 c. of left over corn. I WILL make this again, it was great! Thanks Marilyn!

This soup is awesome, we make it all the time. It's just as good with mozzarella instead of the swiss, and I always add some cheddar cheese as well. I also tried making it with zucchini and frozen corn once when I realized I didn't have any celery, and my fiancee liked it even better. A little time consuming, but well worth it!

One word...WoW! We doubled it, (lg family) and it was a hit. When I read recipe reviews here, I pay close attention to the ones that comment about how their picky eater loved the dish. I have yet to have my daughter love a dish that other finicky children chow on. Well, this recipe is the first time I have had her eat a soup! I have tried many potatoe soups, and this is the one she ate! Aside form that I made a few substitutions. I used reconstituted dry skim milk, a whole red onion (pulverized), and I used low fat swiss and cheddar. I think I may try asome dill havarti next time for a change. This will be a regular on our monthly menu.

I liked this soup, but the addition of the swiss cheese really disagreed with me, and I wasn't interested in the leftovers. Next time I make this, I'll use cheddar cheese. I used a homemade vegetable broth, and added a dash of cayenne, which made it much more flavorful. The texture is perfect, though, and overall it's a very hearty meal! I chose to serve it with a green vegetable and small slices of bread from a baguette.

I love, love, LOVE this recipe! I make it at least once every two weeks, and have made other people try it -- everyone loves it, vegetarian and non-vegetarian alike. I usually double it and add more potatoes to make it thicker. I also substitute broccoli for the celery, and sometimes add other veggies like parsnips or corn. And I've tried different cheeses -- monterey jack, cheddar, mozzarella, havarti -- all taste great. I'd definitely recommend this hearty soup to anyone!

Terrific soup, without question one of the best potato soups ever. It's not a picky recipe either...I made a double recipe of it (large family) and had to substitute about a cup of the 5 cups of milk I needed with evaporated milk, soft cheese, sour cream, and half and half; plus, we were all out of swiss chesse, so I used two and half cups of Cabot extra sharp cheddar. The results were delicious--my mom loved it so much she had seconds and even thirds! Since I hadn't read the reviews before I cooked it, I was a little surprised about how peppery it turned out, but I didn't think it was TOO peppery, necessarily. Anyway, this soup does take some time, but it is so wonderful that it's definitely worth it. I will make it again in the winter, I'm sure.

A really tasty soup. Did not have vege broth so I made some of my own with chicken bones, celery & carrot. Also substituted Swiss cheese with Cheddar cheese and made the soup really thick with more potatoes.
