Reviews
Added real cheddar cheese shreds (instead of processed chez), corn and shredded carrots. Fresh and delicious. One our family favorites from now on.
Made exactly as recipe stated… Perfection!
Made and messed up a bit but turned out amazing
This soup turned out really good and was simple to make. I typically use milk or half and half but really liked the evaporated in this particular recipe. On that note, I did need more than a cup to get it to the consistency I like but other than that it was perfect as written.
