My second time using the basic recipe. I do not measure to the exact amount. I use the
Ingredients and guess about the amounts. So far we have liked the soup both times. The potato is important and I also add a handful of grated Mexican blend cheese.

On the advice of others I only used 3 cups of broth. I added garlic and substituted leeks for the onion. It was very creamy and delicious, I’ll definitely make it again.
Thank you so much, fantastic for cold days and a painful toothache LOL excellent job on this soup I do recommend it.
This is very easy and tasty but I found that 3 cups of broth is plenty to make a soup with a thicker consistency. You can always add broth when it finished but it’s a time consuming process to reduce it if it’s too thin!
Tasty & easy! I added 1/2 chopped poblano and 1/2 red pepper to onions.
Delicious! I add white pepper for some zest and double the potato since my experience with this recipe leaves it a bit thinner for my preference.
Soooooooo simple and delicious!
Yum!
Delicious and easy!
Absolutely amazing recipe!
