"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.

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!

I made this soup for a "Soup Cook-off" at church and I won first place. I have have everyone ask for the recipe. I love it!!!

Makes a good basic potato soup. I left out the ham but added some kale instead. I also halved the recipe, and it still worked out well.

My daughter was home sick from school and asked for some creamy soup which had hash browns and onions in it. I didn't want to go to the grocery store so I started searching for recipes which included the ingredients I had on hand. I found this recipe but didn't want to thaw out a ham steak to make it. So I substituted some leftover rotisserie chicken for the ham. I also used light cream cheese. It was delicious and my daughter loved it!! I'll definitely make it again.

My family really enjoyed this very easy to make recipe. I added some cheese to change it up a bit. I would definitely make this one again. Thanks. :)

My entire family loves this, even my son who doesn't really care for potatoes. Great with a crusty bread. I like to leave out the ham & adorn with bacon & chives. Wonderful!
