  • “This was my first attempt at potato soup.I added chopped celery and a chopped carrot, and some cooked bacon.Using the blender to pureesome, made it great.I should have left out the bacon though.”

  • “I can`t see how a soup with 1 1/2 cups liquid can serve 6. I must say if I used that amount i would have more of a mashed potato with chunks. I did use 4 cups of veggie broth 1 cup just wouldn`tcover the potatoes. I used fresh parsley but adding twice, first when stated and just before serving. Used organic butter and organic milk. Also the potatoes were organic fresh picked so I left the skins on. Just washed the dirt off. Added some pepper flakes to spice it up. I also did use the 2 tablespoon of flour called for and with the liquid I used it was plenty thick. The rating is on how I made it. Thanks for a quick easy soup.”

  • “My DH and I really enjoyed this soup.I too added diced celery and sautéed it with the onion (for personal preference).I also thought it was a good way to put my immersion blender to use since it doesn’t get used too often!Served it topped with sliced scallions and shredded cheddar cheese and Red Lobster Cheddar Bay biscuits on the side.Yumm-O!”

  • “I made this for my German wife who was raised on potatoes.She made me proud when she said it was as good as her mother’s soup.I added a handful of bacon bits for my protein fix.”

  • “This ain’t my Momma’s potato soup…it’s better, just don’t tell mom. I did take a few liberties. I added some minced garlic and served it with some cheddar cheese and bacon crumbles. So good will be using this one again!”

  • “Best potato soup I ever made!I skipped the parsley, celery seed and flour.Used part half and half which thickened nicely.Also used a large amount of fresh celery that needed using up.It was delicious and fast!A culinary miracle in my book!Robbie, thanks for the recipe!”

  • “This is a great soup when you or one of your family members is feeling down in the dumps. I added left over ham, bacon bits and copped green onion as a garnish.”

  • “My granddaughter who is learning to cook made this. It is easy, tastes good and got rave reviews. She accomplished the dish with no trouble.I did use 1/4 cup chopped celery instead of the celery seeds.i cooked the celery with the butter.”

  • “I tried this recipe for the first time today.It was super simple to make and super yummy to eat!!I did make a few adjustments though.I didn’t have enough potatoes so I added some frozen carrots.I also didn’t have celery seed or parsley but I used dried cilantro and a dash of paprika.My husband found the soup a bit thick so the next time I make it I will add a bit more milk.I will also add some diced celery next time too.”

  • “This was the best Potato Soup I have ever made, and so so easy! I will make this again and again!!!”

  • “Excellent recipe. I added a bit of garlic powder. some chopped, steamed broccoli and cheddar cheese and it made for a delicious, creamy soup.”

  • “I’ve made this soup many times now, and we just LOVE it!I use dried parsley (almost a tablespoon) and add just a touch of garlic.And I only puree about a cup full of the soup and potatoes.It makes a wonderful creamy and thick soup.Thank you again for such a great recipe!”

  • “Fantastic. I recommend adding cheese (I added 1 pkg shredded cheddar blend). I also substituted Celery for the celery seed. Gives the soup a little crunch here and there with all the same flavor. (chop 3-4 stock and throw in with step 2)Makes a great winter meal!”

  • “This is a fantastic recipe. My husband just broke his jaw, and can only eat soft foods for a month, so I thought I’d give this a try. I was pretty wary of using so much parsley, but I put it all in, and it tastes amazing. The only thing I’ll do differently next time is add the finely chopped parsley at the very end. I used an immersion blender and blended the whole pot, rather than half of it, and it turned a pretty ugly shade of green . In addition, I put a small amount of shredded cheddar cheese in the bottom of the bowl when I served it, which made it even more delicious.”

  • “I made this today and it was just wonderful. Comfort food for sure for me. I didnt have fresh parsley, so I used dried, just eyeballed it till I thought it was enough.I also only used 1 T. butter. Didnt think I needed two. And I used skim milk.The taste was awsome. Dont know how much a serving is, I ate one cup. Could have eaten, more but I thought Id leave a bit for someone else. Thanks for such a great recipe Robbie.mollywally”

  • “Very good and very easy!!!”

  • “I am not a fan of thyme, so I omitted it, as well as halved the amount of parsley stated. Turned out great!”

  • “My wife and i love this recipe.It is easy and quick. thanks robbie for a great recipe.”

  • “What a great soup recipe, very easy to put together, and great on a cold day, made this for hubby and I, and he enjoyed it, and he’s not much for homemade soup’s. Very good, and there’s not to much parsley (it’s good for you.) Thank you “

  • “This recipe was extremely easy to make and worked out exactly as it should have. Just don’t use red potatoes, it gives the soup a very sweet flavor.”
