OMG! This hearty soup is the bomb. It is easy to cut the recipe in half for a smaller quantity. Creamy, mushroomy, with a hint of heat. My husband added hot sauce for that extra umph! Love, love, love this soup!
This was excellent! Makes a large batch so I froze half of it to enjoy later. Did not change a thing - delicious as written!
This soup is good, but my family prefers a different Cheeseburger soup recipe that I've adapted from Taste of Home. For us this just lacked something, but we liked the mushrooms. I will probably add mushrooms to the my Cheeseburger soup.
Very good soup! I did half of the recipe for my husband and I and it was the perfect amount for us to eat once with leftovers a couple of times.I left out the jalapeno peppers since we do not like spicy food. I also kept it in the crock pot for a couple of hours on warm since I needed to make the meal a while before we would be able to eat. Turned out great!
Great cheeseburger soup! Easy to follow directions and great for a cold day.
Why does everything have to have a spicy kick? There are tons of people who cannot tolerate this. The same goes for the t.v. food channels.
This soup is so good!! We fix it for those cold days !! We love it!!
Everyone loved it, will make it again.
I doubled ALL the veggies, used half and half instead of milk and added one cup of sharp cheddar. Mmmm Mmmm Good!
We have been making this for over a year, it is amazing ! Leftovers are easily frozen.
