  1. For an easy, ready-in-10-minutes soup, it's really good. The swirled pesto added a nice flavor and a pretty presentation. I think it could use a little extra flavor. Maybe sauteed fresh minced onions or some herbs/spices? Thanx for posting!
     
  2. I halved the recipe and used vegetable broth. I would reduce the garlic powder next time because the pesto had garlic in it too and the flavor became really overwhelming. I also added extra potato flakes because I wanted it thicker. Other than that, it was tasty and comforting on a cold rainy night.
