John did the cooking last night and it was great. Last month we ordered some of the Watkins Baked Potato Soup Mix (05707) and since the weather has turned cold, he decided it was time to try it.
Rather than using the 3 cups of water like the directions say, he used 2 cups of water and 1 cup of milk. When it was almost done he added half a pound of frozen hash browns (cubes, not slice). That really made for some great soup. I’ve heard some people think it has too much of a pepper flavor but I didn’t think so. John doesn’t like spicy food and he didn’t think it was to spicy either. I guess everyone is different when it comes to what they consider spicy.
We topped it with some shredded cheese and loved it. I think next time I’ll add a little crumbled bacon on top also.
The soup is a holiday special so it won’t be available for long. If you would like to try it, you can order it online at the Watkins website. If you do, please use my associate number 030517.
Have a great day.
