      We made this tonight! It was amazing! It was creamy without being heavy. I could have eaten the soup even with out adding the cream. I added some fresh rosemary and minced garli and used brats that were left over from dinner instead of ham. Thank you!

      Delicious. Left over ham and bone from New years. Just finished the final touches as prescribed by Rachel. The rosemary gives it a nice taste that compliments the ham well.

      This turned out deliciously. I used a large ham bone and added additional ham, and a bit of good cheddar at the end, in addition to the roux and milk. I think since I used so much ham, it had a pink color that wasn't terrific, but the taste outweighed the odd color! Will make again for sure. Great to have something to do with that leftover ham/bone and potatoes that I always have around!

      Ive made this receipe COUNTLESS times and it gets rave REVIEWS
      I use the Bouillon cubes with less salt, as a few times its been super salty to taste.
      I ALWAYS add the ham bone as it gives it so much additional flavor..
      This freezes very well and can be made over and over again.

      Fantastic- "restaurant quality" was the high praise from my husband. The kids loved it too. I felt such satisfaction from using my leftover ham to whip up such a delicious home cooked meal... But I would buy the ham just to make this! It was very simple but I was so proud! This is one of very few going into my Christmas-time recipe book to serve for guests during the holidays! (Added minced garlic, chopped carrots, and peas to increase veggies. My hubby suggested adding some white beans next time.)

      Oh so yummy!!! I am all about the Crock-Pot recipes, but ran out of time today so made this less than an hour by boiling the potatoes to rush the tendering process. It was amazing!! I also took some others suggestions by adding some minced garlic, and so glad I did. Thanks so much for sharing a wonderful recipe.

      Been making potato soup for a few years now ( using a similar but different recipe ) First time doing it in a Crock-Pot however... Super easy and super good. In fact it was the best batch I've ever made and my wife loved it as well... Thank you for the simple recipe... Oh I doubled it and used 1 container ( 4 cups ) of chicken broth and same of vegetable broth and it added tons of flavor...

      This is absolutely great. I made this with spiral cut ham that I had in freezer left over from Christmas and it was wonderful. The whole family wanted it again as soon as the double batch pot was gone. I didn't have any celery but will try that next time. A keeper recipe for sure.

      Made with dehydrated hashbrowns that I rehydrated. Added 2 cloves garlic, 2 bay leaves and a grated carrot for colour. Used celery leaves as part of the celery. Thickened with cornstarch. Added 1&1/4 c milk, 1/2 c cream and 1/4 c sour cream. Delicious.
