great soup. I used shallots instead of onion and cooked them with garlic and butter before adding them to the soup. I added more cheese and instead of ham I used bacon. Very creamy and yummy!

I made this for dinner last night (a double batch for my little family) and it's not even noon and the soup's all gone! I think that speaks for itself. I used tapioca flour instead of AP flour because of wheat allergies and the soup turned out great. I also made sure the onions were soft after cooking in the butter, then I added the flour, then the rest of the ingredients. It only simmered about 15 minutes because we were all so hungry, and the soup smelled so good! It was delicious.

This turned out great, although I thought the amount per person was very small. I was cooking for 4 children and 2 adults, so cooked enough for 6, it wasn't enough and the children only had small portions. Cook more than you think you will need. Like others I added more cheese than the recipe called for, I doubled it. I also cooked the onions with the flour and butter before adding the potatoes. Oh and I added chicken stock to the water the potatoes were cooked in. I will be making this again.

I cooked the onions with some of the flour, sugar, salt and pepper. I added a dash of cajun spice and a touch of crushed red peppers.

This soup is very yummy. I did do a couple of changes to the recipe as others have. kept it basically the same though. I added brocolli, and cauliflower, and Velveeta cheese. I put all this together in the slowcooker, raw. I put about half a brick of cheese on the bottom first, added the ingredients, and out the other half of the brick on top as to seep trough all the veggies. I also put in turkey bacon and 2 chives and some butter so as the cheese wouldn't adhere to the slowcooker as much. It is a very tasty meal, not just a soup. I used a head of cauliflower and brocolli, and about a bag of red potatos, and a whole thing of turkey bacon. My family loves it, including my picky 8 and 13 year old children. Thank you for the recipe!!

This was very good. I used someone else's suggestion of adding mashed potato flakes to thicken it and decided I wish I hadn't, but my husband thought it was great!

This is a good starter recipe for potato cheddar soup. As mentioned by several reviewers it definitely needs a few extras to improve the flavor which would otherwise be very bland. I have a few tips that made the soup very tasty. I always start my potato soups with mashed potatoes; it gives the soup a nice thick texture. I used crisp bacon, 2 cups of sliced carrots as well as the water I had used to boil them, about a half cup sauteed onions, a tablespoon of chicken broth, and a teaspoon of parsley. With plenty of soup making experience now, I also have a tip regarding the cheese. I put the soup on a low heat to let the flavors blend and at that time sprinkled a few tablespoons of the cheese at a time to give it a chance to melt in. Once it's melted in, give it a stir and add a few more tablespoons until it's all added (as a novice soup maker, I made the mistake of sprinkling all of the cheese in at once and ended up with one lumpy mess of a soup; the cheese all clumped together and ended up very gummy, it was terrible).

This was a great recipe! Like a lot of the other reviews, I cooked the onions in the butter before I added it to the soup. It was a delicious hearty soup!

Enjoyable soup. I added some parsley, oregano and basil to the soup to give it a little more flavor. I also used smoked sausage instead of ham.

I was very impressed with how easy this was and how good it came out. I used all my left-overs from Christmas dinner! The only changes that I made were I added the onions at the same time as the potoatoes so they softened. And, I added left-over asparagus half-way through which added a great taste. This came out very creamy and flavorful. Will definitely make this again.

Very easy to make - especailly to someone who is not a chef. I also sauted the onions in the butter, first. It made them a little softer for the soup. My husband just loved it! It will definitely be a keeper!

This was a very yummy soup, but I felt that it was lacking something I couldn't quite put my finger on - that is why I gave it 4 stars. I did sautee the onions in the butter with a little garlic until soft as other reviewers suggested, then added the flour and cooked out the raw flavor of it for a minute, before adding it to the milk, potatoes and other ingredients. I also doubled the cheese and skipped the sugar. It was quite tasty.

This recipe was too plain for me, but easy to make and a good base to work with. I used scallions instead of onions. Next time I'd use a sharp cheddar and more of it, 1/2 milk and 1/2 cream, and add some seasonings like garlic powder and onion powder.

Absolutely Loved this soup. Made a few changes after reading some of the reviews. Thank you guys! This is what I did - Add 4 cups of water and potatoes instead. Sautee onions and 1.5 tsp gartlic in butter until tender and add to mixture when adding everything else. Add 1 more TBSP of flour and 1 TBSP of corn starch to thicken soup. Add more cheese, just because we love cheese.
