Comments
This recipe is from Progresso.  I don’t tend to use prepared stuff like this, but, in the past, I have greatly enjoyed Progresso’s soup.  I saw a recipe using one of these recipe starters on a blog I follow, and decided to get a few cans when I saw them at the grocery store. 

I thought this dish was tasty although it was a bit runnier than I would have liked it to be.  I think increasing the potatoes might help with that.  I served it with eggs to order – mine are shown fried over medium which is my favorite way to prepare eggs.
