Outstanding! I've been looking for a good cabbage soup recipe for years. I lost the one I really liked, but it required a ham bone anyway. I love that I can make this one any time and not wait for a bone. I may add a bit of chopped ham when I make it again.

Just like a restaurant! This soup was amazing! I made it using a vegetable broth I made that had some cayenne pepper in it (quite a bit by accident). This gave it a little spice. I also used parsely, salt, pepper, and paprika to season it. My friend who tried it with me absolutely loved it and said that, "it was just like a soup from a restaurant!" Which I would have to agree to. I used evaporated milk and loved the creaminess but I think I'm going to try 1% milk to make it a little less fattening.

This Soup was wonderful. My whole family enjoyed it. We are taking it to a church function tomorrow.. My 6 year old ate 3 bowls.

Top Rank! This meets all the standards. It is: inexpensive, easy to prepare, a great blend of tastes, very filling.

Quality of nature goodness-so satisfying! I prepared this last week, my wife and I had to each have a second bowl. This week the church wants to have for its soup supper, I just received a call to share the recipe with two families. I suggested they SIGN UP....GLAD I DID.

We loved the soup. I baked a chicken breast and added to the soup. My husband thought it was the greatest. I will make it again."

Great potato soup - it is not only a good tasteing soup, but fast and easy to cook. Don't pass this one up - try it.
