Red Potato Soup With Roquefort

"Copied from a Better Homes and Garden Quick Soup mini-cookbook-the kind you impulsively buy while waiting in a checkout line at the grocers. It's been so long since I've tried this soup that I don't remember if I like it or not. You try it and let me know, okay?"

  1. I give this a 5, dear husband found it too rich. This is a warming and tasty soup and I am a relative new comer to liking blue cheese flavoring. Adds a note of sophistication to humble potato soup.
     
  2. This is a fabulous potato soup. I followed the recipe exactly. I liked the partially mashed texture, so I did not do the optional pureeing at the end. It really thickens up nicely after it is heated through. Loved the diced tomato and green onion garnish. Thanx, CookGirl. I'll make this again.
