"It had little taste and no thickness. It is good if you are trying to lose weight, but otherwise, don't bother...." See more"

"For a low fat soup this was pretty good. Instead of the cans of chicken broth I used 1 1/2 cups of water and 1 Tablespoon chicken bouillon. I also decreased the milk to 1 cup and increased the potat..." See moreo flakes to 1 cup. It obviously wasn't the same as a soup filled with fat but I liked it as a healthy alternative."
