VERY VERY YUMMY!! I love this soup. My two year old thought it had "yuckies" in it because of the spices but as soon as she tried it she ate two bowls! My six year old also loved it. Awesome family recipe.

REALLLY GOOOOD! A couple of things I did differently:

I made a roux with the flour and butter amounts called for and added it when the recipe required the butter to be added and also I used 1 cup of half and half and 1 cup of milk (I had half & half left over so I just used it).

My 6 and 3 year old's LOVED it and they usually don't like "American" type food. I made this on a whim, its really cold tonight and i wanted some warm, comforting soup and THIS MOST DEFINITELY hit the spot! This recipe went straight into the recipe file for future use!!!

Great recipe, much like my grandma used to make. I doubled the recipe and added some leftover smoked ham from Thanksgiving. Really hearty for a cold rainy day.

SO SO SO good!! This is just the recipe i've been looking for! I always wanted to make potato soup the way my mom made it and could never find the perfect recipe. This soup is wonderful and EASY!

Fixed this early today. Absolutely fantastic. Only made a couple of changes. I added about 1/2 tsp. bacon bits, so they wouldn't overpower. Did NOT add flour at beginning, when I slowly added the Parmesan. At end of cooking process, blended about 1 tsp. flour with a little water - then added to soup. This prevented clumps, yet helped thicken a little. This recipe is a keeper.....

Excellent! Was looking for a potato soup with the chunks of potato, not mashed. Tried this and my husband loves it and he is sometimes hard to please. I doubled the recipe and used 1 can (12 oz) evaporated milk for part of the milk portion needed, only because I had it on hand and was going to use another recipe and decided to use this recipe instead so I used it. I will definitely make it again. Awesome .... loved it !

I love this recipe! I reduce the amount of spices, however (acid reflux). I also add corn to it. Very delicious. It's a family favorite!

Fantastic! I live in Japan, and made this after I received a gift of homegrown potatoes. Not only did it remind me of home (the States), but my Japanese husband loved it too!

Super recipe! I added celery and I sauted it with the onion and carrots, I also added keilbasa sausage. I did not have cilantro but added garlic. I think the Italian seasoning and parmeson cheese really made this dish! I will make it again and share the recipe with my friends. thank you Suzanne!

Wonderful soup! True comfort food. My child even liked it, ate 2 servings for supper then 2 for lunch the next day. She avoids veggies but really liked this recipe. I added a lot of celery (leaves, stalk, celery salt). I didn't have chicken cubes so I added onion powder. Will make this again.

Very good!!!! I did not add Mrs. Dash. I added chicken base and just used chicken broth and can milk no water. This will be my go to tater soup from now on.
