Creamy Potato Soup image

This is still one of my favorite soups when I'm not feeling well. As with a lot of other soups, it is even better the next day. I have cut up left-over chicken and put it in the soup also.....

I would not recommend this recipe. There are much better potato soup recipes out there.

Overall, I thought this soup was just okay. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything special either.

This recipe is missing some key ingredients. It needs more garlic and onions.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my soup turned out lumpy. I tried to smooth it out with a blender, but it didn't work.

This soup was a waste of time. It was watery and flavorless.

I followed the recipe exactly and the soup turned out bland. I had to add a lot of salt and pepper to make it taste good.

This soup was a bit too thick for my taste, but the flavor was great. I'll try thinning it out next time.

This creamy potato soup was a hit with my family! The soup was creamy and flavorful, and the potatoes were cooked perfectly. I added a bit of extra cheese and some chopped bacon, and it was even better.
