This is based on an Allrecipes recipe for potato soup with ham. I had run out of ham and several other ingredients, so I changed some, substituted some, added spices, and this is the result. My husband called it a definite keeper an asked me to mark it for future use. Read more It makes use of fall and late summer veggies, and the ingredients can be changed depending on the state of your refrigerator. See less

Sounds delicious! But I think it deserves a fancier name with all those yummy ingredients. Maybe "Wayne's Favorite Kicked-Up Potato Chowder." Will be making this one soon! Love this autumn soup weather!
