Thanks much ~ it sure sounds like it since there’s no chicken stock in it. That was my problem with most recipes. I don’t care for meat and can tell instantly if there’s chicken or beef stock in something. Bacon I can eat in small amounts, but soups with meat stock turn me off.

Thanks for the help!

Thanks for the potato soup recipe. Hubby made it tonight and he loved it! I don’t love sour cream and kept getting a sour creamy taste so we both agreed that next time we’ll try 1/2 sour cream and 1/2 heavy cream. Other than that change it was excellent, thanks again!
