It is freezing here in Colorado and this sounded great. Had to cut the recipe in half due to lack of potatoes. It came out fabulous. Was short onion but strangely I had green onion and that worked well. Don't like corn in soup so omitted. Kids, picky teens, loved it. Thanks!

My husband, oldest daughter and I all enjoy this recipe. We do not add the corn but the rest of the recipe is perfect for our taste. This is the only potato soup I will make from now on.

This is the best potato soup ever. My wife said it's the best she's had too. Better than my mom makes. It has a sweet taste I've never experienced in a soup before.

Very good...and to make it even quicker you can use 2 cans of sliced potatoes. Next time a may try a little less potato flakes. It was a hit with the family!

I don't care much for soups but even I like this one. Instead of milk I used heavy whipping cream and left out the potatoe flakes. I didn't have any bacon but even without it the soup was heavenly.

Great soup recipe but I omitted the corn and potato flakes. The soup thickens the next day and is even better than the first!

I felt it tasted like runny mashed potatoes

I made some changes, I also added a clove of garlic, chopped celery and helped the flavor along with chicken b. cubes. added a bay leaf and chopped parsley. Excellent. I served it with grated Guyrere cheese and chopped green onion... Definitely excellent. I omitted the potato flakes.

I had a perfect potato soup until I added the potato flakes. Yes, they thickened the soup, but the resulting texture was horrible.

My husband LOVED this soup. I served it with grilled cheese sandwiches. Even my kids liked it! I did add just a dash of garlic for flavor. It is a very hearty and fullfilling meal!
