Hearty Potato Soup
Having grown up on a dairy farm in Holland, I love our country life here in Idaho's "potato country." My favorite recipe for potato soup originally called for heavy cream and bacon fat, but I've trimmed down the recipe. —Gladys DeBoer, Castleford, Idaho

I'm allergic to dairy so I used olive oil and oat milk (instead of butter and milk) and it was great! Just 1 cup of liquid was too thick for me, so I added more. This soup really reminds me of being a kid and coming home for dinner after a day on the snowy mountains :) Two thumbs up!
Soup is delicious. Regarding the recipe itself, the directions call for milk, but Milk is not included in the list of ingredients.
Just made this! It was amazing!

Simple and delicious!! Thank you! I have made it many times now and it really is perfect.
Good basic potato soup recipe. Tweaked mine with garlic, powdered mustard and about 2 cups shredded sharp cheddar. Needed a meatless soup for day after Thanksgiving and this recipe inspired me. Thanks Gladys!
This soup has a good taste as long as you add more salt
I’ve been making this since the 1990’s when this recipe first made its debut! I can tell you it’s excellent and at times I use this recipe and substitute broccoli in the place of potatoes, works perfectly, I also will sub out cooking liquid for chicken broth, and I will sometimes blend half of the soup for thickness :)
Great potato soup just like when I was a kid not all other ingredients like bacon and cheese I like that kind of potato too but I just wanted a original potato soup and this soup is really great will be making a lot more
We love this Potato Soup! It is delicious and has become a family favorite!!
