"I came up with this soup after I had tried something similar at a restaurant," explains Stacy Bockelman, California, Missouri. "Using chicken bouillon and frozen hash browns makes it easy to fix. It's good with sourdough bread," she adds. It's also good for your pocketbook at only 47 cents a bowl.

Loved this soup! Made it as shown except for 2 things: I sauteed the onions and ham a little before adding them to the soup, and used rosemary instead of dill. Fast, easy, and delicious, and definitely a recipe I'll make again.

This just replaced my favorite potato soup recipe. My whole family loved it.

Delish! There are only 3 of us at home tonight for dinner so I prepared 1/2 the recipe. My picky teenage son informed me I need to double it. My husband says this recipe is a keeper. The only changes I made was I used bacon instead of ham and added lots of white pepper. We didn't have ham on hand and we like white pepper.

Wonderful soup. A great way to use up holiday ham. Wouldn't change a thing.

I love how easy and delicious this recipe is. I used cooked turkey bacon in place of the ham as a lower fat substitute, and it added a nice smokey flavor.

our family loves it. We make it with vegetable broth granules instead of chicken and threw in crumbled bacon- yummy!
