I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my soup turned out really watery. I think I might have added too much milk.

The soup was a bit too salty for my taste, but overall it was a good recipe. I'll try it again with less salt next time.

The soup was okay, but I found it to be a bit bland. I think it could have used more seasoning.
