“This was DELICIOUS!! My extremely picky 8 year old ate two bowls and requested I pack it in her lunch box for tomorrow! I used dried thyme because I had it on hand and added a little Cajun seasoning, otherwise I followed the recipe exactly. I will definitely b” — a cook, 5.0★
“Love this recipe. I had Costco bacon bits and no bacon. I had no half & half so used what another reviewer did, 1 C milk & 4 oz cream cheese. I added the bacon bits & the cheddar cheese at the end while the soup was thickening. A great recipe” — a cook, 5.0★
