This soup is easy, tastes delicious. I really like the fact that there is no cream, much healthier. I put a bay leaf in the soup while boiling

Too watery. And I even used chicken stock as 3/4 of my broth.

This soup was very easy and very tasty. There was too much pepper in it for me so I will go less next time. It is a great soup that doesn’t have a cream base. So for those who can’t tolerate dairy products this is fabulous. Enjoy!

The soup tastes like it came from a restaurant! The ingredients are very simple and cooking time is less than 1 hour!

I used chicken stock instead of just plain water coz I’m used to having chicken stock as my soup base. It still tasted very good!!!

This recipe was a big hit as an early course in our annual St. Patrick’s Day dinner. The key was my good quality immersion blender and dicing the potatoes into very small cubes.
