Added carrots and celery as others suggested. It really needs more seasoning. Maybe some chicken bullion would help. I would also use heavy cream instead of milk to thicken, if you don't mind the calories of course.

I made this with my boyfriend for his family and they loved it!!! We added cream cheese, bacon and carrots and it was amazing. They in turn made it for their church group and have had many people ask for the recipe. It was very easy to make and tastes so good. I've recommended it to friends and coworkers.

This is a great recipe and easy to make. I added celery and also puréed the soup for a smoother texture. I added crumbled bacon on top. Very delicious!

This is a fabulous recipe. I tweaked it by using evaporated milk to thicken, sauteed minced garlic with the onions, used Celtic sea salt instead of garlic salt, added more potatoes, and added Hormel bacon pieces.

I added some carrot and used fat free evaporated milk, which made the soup even richer, but without the extra fat.
