The kids cooked this meal and loved it. I put about 1/4 cup of instant mash. My hubby cooked some bacon and added it to his. Thanks the kids thought they were very clever using chips for dinner.

If I had prepared this myself I wouldn't have known it was made with potato chips. I liked the flavor that the Italian seasoning added to the soup. Thanks princess buttercup for such a quick and tasty soup recipe. Bullwinkle.
