Just made the soup tonight for lunch on Mon. & Tues.
It was really easy and I think I'll try the recipe again with various adaptations (Such as some yogurt instead of all cream cheese)
I halved the recipe since DH won't eat it.
I did use 1 c vegetable broth and 1 c chicken broth and low fat cream cheese. Also, I added 1 stalk celery (Would add more next time) and only a tiny bit of onion (would add more, and also fresh garlic).
Mine isn't very "soup" like - it's more like potato mac & cheese instead of pasta ;-) But I love mac & cheese so it works for me!0 -
I made the potato soup today. I agree that it was really thick...kind of like mashed potatoes. My kids didn't mind that at all. I wonder if using FF cream cheese caused it to be more gloppy than regular cream cheese. I think I'd also use a bit less cream cheese and/or more broth next time. I really liked the flavor, especially the cayenne which gave it a little bit of a kick. Thanks for the recipe. Great comfort meal for fall and winter!0

I made the soup today. I would definitely serve it again because the flavor was really good, but I think I would serve it as a potato dish instead of a soup dish because it was kind of thick. It would go really nice with a piece of chicken or beef.
I forgot to take a picture though :X0 -
wow, the soup sounds pretty good - and I love creamy potato soup!!
A few questions:
1. can I add other stuff? (celery, carrots, etc) and when would I add them (with potato?)
2. Does this soup freeze? DH won't eat soup, but if I can freeze it, that would be great for quick lunches...
3. I don't do well with "cups" of stuff - how many potatoes makes 2 cups? 4 cups?
Thanks!! This is perfect for the colder weather coming in now.
1. I think it would be fine to add celery or whatever - I would add with the potatoes so they soften.
2. I don't know how well it would freeze - I've always heard that freezing dairy products changes the texture, so I've never tried it. Also, we love this soup so we eat the leftovers really quick.
3. I don't know how many potatoes I use. I peel and chop them and then throw them in my 4 cup measuring cup until it's full. It depends on the size of your potatoes, but I would say approx 1 large potato = 3/4-1 cup chopped.
Freeze some before adding the cheese, then add that when you reheat it.0 -
Gail - I did think about that while making it! Now that I've had some, I'm ready to experiment and I'll add that to the list of things to try.
There's only 4 responses to the soup and 1 to the salad...has anyone else tried this??? Please post your thoughts so we can make these recipes great and see all the variety people have done to them!0 -

I made the soup but mine turned a bit more spicy than I expected. I used seasoning that had pepper already plus added pepper and cayenne. It was good, I could make it again but next time I cant have all that pepper. My soup had a lot less calories (which was nice) because I used all light or fat free products.0
