      This is delicious. Added a can of northern beans for some protein, skipped the cheddar to cut down on calories, skipped the parsley as I didn't have any, subbed 1/4 c cottage cheese for the cream cheese and used water instead of stock to cut down on salt. Very tasty and flavorful soup! Thanks!

      I thought this was really good. DH thought it was ok. We made last night and let the chowder meld for lunch today. My vegetable broth was unsalted and therefore, I thought the chowder needed quite a bit of added salt for flavor. Thanks for posting. This was enjoyed.

      totally yummy and best veggie chowder ever! serving size is really 4 main dish bowls or 8 side dish bowls. 2 c onions = 1 medium-large onion; 1 c carrot = 2 carrots; 1.5 c potatoes = 2 medium potatoes; 1 c zucchini = 1 small zucchini. If use maggie brand veggie stock dilute it as it's too strong/salty by itself. Less salt is ok if using veggie stock instead of water. Canned green beans is fine but add them when adding the peas. Can add any other veggies, but rsuggest add 1/2 c. chopped mushrooms when add peas. Use sharp cheddar cheese, shredded is fine instead of grated. Serve with crusty french bread, garlic bread, cornbread, or sandwhiches (like egg salad).

      This was really delicious! Made as written except that I didn't have fresh parsley so just left it out. I was happy to see that it freezes well because I want to take it to my son who is vegetarian! Thank you for posting.

      This was an ok soup. Nothing special. A great way to add veggies to a diet though.

      I highly recommend making this with fresh vegetables. The first time I made it, I tried to cheat and use frozen, but it just watered down the soup and made it very bland. Fresh vegetables are always best, but especially in this soup!

      Yummy! The technique of blending the cooked veggies with creamcheese and milk produced an outstandingly smooth soup! I re-seasoned my soup after re-adding the puree, putting in more salt and pepper and a pinch of cayenne for some heat. A real winner, and produced a restaurant quality result!

      This was a great recipe! Very easy to make. I just used all the different vegetables I had around and cheeses that I had and it turned out great. Mine did take a little longer to cook, but it was nice and satisfying without being too heavy!

      This was fantastic! I used frozen corn instead of zucchini and added extra green beans because I wanted to use them up. I think you could probably use whatever vegetables you like in this recipe as long as you use a variety. It was so delicious and creamy...I will make it over and over again!

      I've never given any Moosewood recipe less than 5 stars and I'm not about to stick it to this recipe. It was terrific. Oh, and I made it a tad more healthful by using only 1 cup of low fat milk and fat free cream cheese. The cheddar was full fat. This was creamy because the milk and cheeses were blended together. If they had not been blended, I'm certain the cheese would have melted and stayed at the bottom of the pan. This could also have been avoided if you used a processed cheese such as Velveeta, but many people are not Velveeta fans. P.S. I substituted corn for peas because it was what I had on hand. I think I reduced the butter and oil a bit too.

      Tasty! I just added whatever veggies were in my fridge-- onion, carrot, eggplant, red and yellow peppers, sweet potatoes, regular potatoes etc. I substituted goat cheese and rice milk, and added a pinch of cayenne for a bit of zing. Also, I didn't puree any of it and ate it chunky style and it was still oh so tasty!

      I made this last night for a small gathering of friends and family. Everyone loved it! Based on some of the comments from other reviewers about the soup being bland, I added a little cayenne pepper and used sharp cheddar cheese. This is simple comfort food at its best. Thanks for posting Tish! (I tried to give this five stars, but I can't get it to work)

      This was really good! Even my picky fiance and kids loved it! I served it with homemade green onion bread to dip in it I was making about 6 other things at the same time and forgot to miz the milk with the cheeses! I just added it right into the soup, heated and it was still fine. I also had just made make ahead mashed potatoes, so I put a spoonful in the soup to thicken it up a little. I think next time I'll make it with extra sharp cheddar, or garlic and onion cheddar. This one is a keeper!
