Nothing beats the real thing from scratch, but as far as instant soup mixes are concerned, this one will become a staple in my cupboard. I really like this. I didn't have butter potatos so I used regular and added butter to the soup when it was hot. It was good without the butter too. I was out of tumeric and used ground mustard. Thank you!

Is great for one person to have around. I have played with similar. This one works for me, although I added 1/2 cup dry coffee creamer and 1/2 teaspoon of butter seasoning, like you would use on popcorn. Is a keeper and one I will work with for some variations.

This was good! It turned out really thick for me, so the next time I make this I am going to cut back a little on the instant potatoes. I added ground mustard instead of the turmeric (as another reviewer did) because I didnt have any. The nice thing is, most of this came from my food storage, and I like that I have a recipe for good food that I can fall back on in tough times. I will be making this again!
