I really enjoy potato soup, and this rich creamy version is different than most I've tried. I like its lemon and cilantro flavors, but you can adjust the ingredients to best suit your family's taste buds. --Hollie Powell of St. Louis, Missouri

Great meatless soup. The whole family enjoyed it (even the picky ones). I like the flavor that the lemon juice and cilantro give it. Will be making again!!

I used leftover baked potatoes. This was quick and easy. I left out the coriander and I used chicken broth. My family enjoyed it and said it was a keeper.

This was very salty, despite the fact I left the salt out. My husband said it tastes like pickles, which I actually have to agree with. I used fire-roasted sweet red peppers, so that may be the reason?? Smells great while cooking on the stovetop.
