"This is a delicious recipe for ham and potato soup that a friend gave to me. It is very easy and the great thing about it is that you can add additional ingredients, more ham, potatoes, etc and it still turns out great."

rachelperry-hance ,Soup was fantastic! I didn't have any celery so I used 1/4 cut diced carrots and sautéed them in olive oil with the onion, and 1TB of minced garlic. Replaced the water with 4 cups of chicken broth. But still added two chicken bullion cubes into 2 cups of water. Possibly overkill for some, but it was full of delicious flavor!! Even my 4 year old loved it :-)11y
amandabroughton ,I added 1/2 cup more water and 3 bouillon cubes of chicken!! Tasted great!11y
mrsswill ,Perfect for leftover Xmas ham! I made this with extra veggies, 3 tbsps of gluten free flour for the roux and I cooked 2 bouillon cubes with the potatoes from the beginning and added an addl cup of water. It was exactly what I was looking for. Thanks for the posting!11y
oaxacacookin ,Excellent, comforting, super easy. Used fennel bulb instead of celery but only because thats what was on hand. Excellent soup. Four of us finished the pot. Served soup with crusty bread and crisp green salad. Thank you for sharing. This is going into my favorites.11y
mckincer ,This was great! I doubled the recipe and almost panicked because the milk and flour mixture wasn't thickening, but it finally did after about 15 minutes. Even my picky husband liked it.11y
naomiandshane ,I used chicken stock, added garlic and leftover creamed corn and used a whole onion. I also added some heavy cream to milk mixture. It was delicious and so easy to throw together!11y

mrsmanley23 ,Amazing! My husband and i loved it! I did alter it a bit. Instead of bouillon, i used 1 cup chicken broth. I used a whole onion, and added a clove of garlic. Will definitely make it again!11y
akiglics ,Best ham and potato soup recipe I have found. Went light on the water, and in the end it was still soupy so I had to add instant potato flakes. Added extra onions and celery as well. Right at the end, I sprinkled with about 1/2 c cheddar cheese on each bowl. Very filling!!! Yum!11y
