"I got this recipe from Recipe Goldmine. I haven't made this yet but plan to soon. It looks like it would be a great soup to make in your crock pot before work or on a busy day, and come home to on a cold winter night!"

I'm guessing my crock pot cooks hotter than others. At 4 hours it started separating. By 6 hours it was very unappetizing looking. Not a fan.

We really enjoyed this soup! I only used 3 potatoes, that was plenty in my 5 quart crockpot. I also used veg. boullion and no bacon or chives but it was fabulous. Like the previous reviewer, it made my house smell wonderful all day. YUM!

While this soup was cooking the kitchen smelled divine. So, I had high hopes for how it tasted. Well, it passed the test! It was wonderful. Everyone thought so! Thanks for the recipe. It was so easy and so good.

I was born in California and although I have been on the East Coast for most of my life I am still displaced! I love the beach and hate the cold! In our free time we love to go to the beach or the mountains and hike or intertube down the lazy Shenendoah River. It is so beautiful there!
