This soup is fantastic! It is now one of my go to recipes. My mom is on a low sodium diet and this is very easy to modify to meet her needs. I did modify the recipe a little I used ham instead of bacon, and put a little instant mashed potato in at the very end to thicken the soup. Thank you for sharing this recipe

A winner. And frankly, meat is currently so expensive that I’m glad to have a soup recipe that we can afford…..even to share. And if you can find cheap bacon, you’re really good.

This soup is outstanding! Quickly became my favorite. I pureed the potatoes and cream cheese and stirred in the cheese and bacon. I will be using this one for my freezer club as well. Thank you so much for sharing a recipe where you do not need to peel potatoes!

This was great soup. I made a few modifications: I used minced garlic and quite a bit of salt and pepper. I also crushed most of the potatos instead of blending part of them because we prefer a thicker soup and this released the starch. I was concerned the peel wouldn’t be good since I crushed them, but it worked out very well – they weren’t noticeable and it kept more nutrients in. Plus, no peeling potatos! We were ready to eat by the time the potatos had cooked, so I put it on the stove to melt the cream cheese faster. Overall, delicious and it was nice not to have to make it right at supper time.
