This is a very easy potato soup that tastes creamy - but without any cream or milk. It's very versatile and can be made with a variety of veggies and meats - or is great with only potatoes.

Yes. Instead of milk you can use the following:
1 packet of chicken or turkey gravy seasoning (found near the taco seasoning packets, etc.)
1/2 cup Parmesan cheese
1/2 cup coffee creamer (non-dairy)
2 cans chicken broth
potato flakes until reach desired consistency
