I thought it had way too many potatoes vs. everything else. It needs like half the potatoes called for by the recipe. All I could taste was potatoes and milk.

I found this recipe when I was trying to find something for both me and my husband to enjoy. I don't eat shrimp but I figured that I would be fine with the potatoes. IT WAS AMAZING! It is truly a favorite in our house now. You can't go wrong with Paula Deen!

My family and I made this tonight. It is an excellent soup paired with salad, but since we didn't have shrimp we went with corn and about a 1/2 lb of shredded medium cheddar -- and since we're in NM we also added green chilis! It was amazing and very filling. The kids are all screaming dibbies on the leftovers for tomorrow - but I think Dad's in the lead!

I made this soup twice - the first time I followed the recipe to the letter, and found it to be too bland. The second time I sauteed two cloves of garlic in the pancetta drippings, and added that to the onions and carrots. I also stirred about 1/2 cup of cheddar right into the soup, just before serving. I garnished it with LOTS of cheddar, pancetta and chives. I omitted the shrimp and used corn, as the shrimp does nothing for the potato soup, and the soup does nothing for the shrimp. I found it to be a waste of good shrimp. My husband loved it the 2nd time around!

What a fantastic soup. Everyone loved it. I also added corn at the same time as the shrimp. Soooo good.

I have made this soup several times with both the shrimp and the corn. It's a great hearty option for holidays with family and friends that drop by or put in bread bowls for a full meal.
I would suggest adding a couple of teaspoons of Old Bay seasoning when you add the flour for some extra flavor and try stay away from the frozen pre-cooked shrimp if you can. They are not as flavorful as the fresh shrimp and have a not so pleasing texture. Overall a GREAT soup and a regular in my house.

In the mood for potato soup so I tried this recipe... Turned out great... very creamy and filling. I omitted the shrimp and corn because I just wanted potato soup. Yummy!
