My mother-in-law shared this recipe with me shortly after my husband and I were married. A bowl of the hot and creamy soup is perfect on a cold winter day.—Michelle Wollenburg, Beatrice, Nebraska

This has become a staple recipe in my house. Everyone loves it & there's never any leftovers!

Excellent flavor! Reminded me of times with my grandma. She makes some of the best potato soup.

Very tasty recipe with a really good home cooked flavor. Although we did make a few changes: I used cream of chicken since there was no cream of mushroom in the house and we used a whole cup of Velveeta since the family loves cheese. Great soup.

great soup would make again -i tweeked it a little - i added more veggies 2 more cups of milk more flour --i didn't cook potatoes ahead of time and they were perfect- i added some ham, a little thyme and fresh garlic -instead of cream of mushroom i added cream of celery. It was outstanding.

This was very easy and quick to put together, and very tasty. I added 2 small cloves of garlic (minced) and double the celery, carrot, and onion. My kids even had seconds! A very good go to recipe to put a nice homemade meal on the table without needing too much time Cook the potatoes in the microwave to save more time.

Very good and easy to make. I added crumbled bacon and more cheese to the top. YUM.

I combined this recipe with another by substituting evaporated milk. I reduced the potato amount & omitted the carrots & celery, but put in celery seed. My husband just ate the entire contents of the pot!
