My whole family loved this! I made it with Club Sandwiches and a fruit salad. I would make this again.

Easy enough to make on a busy Monday evening for dinner.

I have made this soup over 15 times, does that tell you anything?

I changed the Velveeta for 8oz of cheddar and it came out great.

Made this despite my dislike of velveeta and was pleasantle surprised and pleased. Really great, comforting soup and the velveeta taste mellows out with time. Leftovers tasted even better, you couldn't tell there was velveeta in it. I'll definitely make this again.
