The recipe calls for 1 cup of cheese (4 ounces.) 1 cup equals 8 ounces. Therefore, I am thinking you only need 1\/2 a cup of cheese.<\/p>","CommentId":6,"DateRated":"02\/15\/2015 15:21","GUID":"31ccd07bf832443c9550208165976832","MemberId":8259480,"Rating":5,"ScreenName":"Clinery","SubmittedDate":"02\/15\/2015 15:21"},{"Comment":"

Tripled the recipe as I had a lot of potatoes on hand. Only had one can of evaporated milk, so added 1\/2 c half half (there goes low fat) and 2 1\/4 c skim milk . I also chopped up some carrots and sauteed carrots, celery, onion and 2 garlic cloves in little bit of butter, before adding broth and potatoes and milk. Used low fat cheddar cheese - it was very good<\/p>","CommentId":7,"DateRated":"","GUID":"8e7c7208577b4ada9687bef8d8ceee16","MemberId":7301440,"Rating":5,"ScreenName":"sieburgp","SubmittedDate":"01\/08\/2014 12:25"},{"Comment":"

No one would ever guess this was low in fat and calories, it is that good! I sauteed the onions & celery in a little bit of light butter for a few minutes, then added the potatoes and broth and continued on with the recipe. I used 2% sharp cheddar cheese and garnished the top with sliced scallions and a couple of slices of crispy bacon. Divine! Hubby said it was the best potato soup ever....10 stars from us!<\/p>","CommentId":8,"DateRated":"04\/13\/2013 14:27","GUID":"89CA487981D9F53390423BD4DD5D896C","MemberId":164053,"Rating":5,"ScreenName":"shelton463","SubmittedDate":"04\/13\/2013 14:27"},{"Comment":"

I used a 32oz. container of fat free broth and doubled the veggies. Also used 1 cup of Colby Jack cheese instead of reduce fat cheddar.

This is really good but needs salt. We eat extremely low fat and this is a keeper. I added more salt and pepper and doubled the recipe. Next time I will not double the cornstarch or add more broth.<\/p>","CommentId":14,"DateRated":"08\/24\/2011 15:04","GUID":"07ee2ac9f94542f6afd9a99ff0766726","MemberId":6171116,"Rating":5,"ScreenName":"AndrewMom","SubmittedDate":"08\/24\/2011 15:04"},{"Comment":"

I doubled the recipe and served to my mom, dad, kids and very fussy husband. Don't tell the guys it's low fat, they never knew.

Yummy!!! I went a step further and added some sliced green onions and a little bit crispy crumbled bacon on top right before serving.
