I'm so sorry but this just didn't turn out the way I had hoped. First, I tagged this in Newest Tag Game on the ingredients and Nutrition Facts. When you get to step 8 in the instructions it says to cover with cheese and there is no cheese listed in the ingredients. Since I had begun making it I continued and topped the potato's, mushrooms and onions with the sour cream mix, of which there wasn't nearly enough for this purpose. It ended up with watery mushroom juice in the bottom of the dish and a bit of tasty but baked dry sour cream mix on top. I used tiny, bite sized, Yukon Gold's left whole in place of canned potato's.

My husband thought I was absolutely insane for buying canned potatoes, but when I told him it was for PAC on Zaar he just rolled his eyes and moved on to the next aisle. He knows there's no stopping me when I'm on a mission from Zaar! This is a good soup, but I really had issues with the canned potatoes myself. I will try this again, but with my own parboiled spuds next time.
