Cheeseburger Soup
August 29, 2014
I am accident-prone.
There I said it.
If I’m not tripping you can bet that I’m running into objects or banging my body up.
This past week I was working on some recipes for SheKnows and I was totally in my groove. The music was blaring, stretchy pants on and I was going at my new recipes. That particular recipe was a trio of different types of spicy fries. In the back of my pantry I have a potato cutter that is perfect for cutting fries. I was on my third potato when I couldn’t get the lever down, so I pressed really hard and when it released my forehead went forward and hit our granite counter.
Granite of course didn’t budge but my head was pounding while I spit out a couple of not so nice words. Then the thoughts started pouring in like:
How did that just happen?
What if I passed out?
Am I going to have a bruise?
Oh and thank goodness no one saw that.
Don’t worry friends I ended up not having a bruise but after 4 days of “the accident” I’m still tender. You can bet that I won’t be cutting fries near an upper counter anytime soon.
Not only did I make those fries that day but also I made this cheeseburger soup. It was in DESPERATE need of some new photo love.

I THOUGHT you said cheeseburger soup. Hungry again.
Ooh!! This sounds yummy!! Almost like queso, but more soupy!
This looks so yummy – I’m trying to think how you could incorporate some more fresh produce into this recipe, as our cheeseburgers normally have lettuce and even beetroot on them in Australia. Maybe on the side?

This sounds awesome! Thank you for sharing this recipe… I’m sorta drooling.
Looks wonderful! There’s nothing like soup on a cold winter night!
Talk about a hearty, filling soup. That looks fantastic and like the perfect soup for a day when the wind gusts are going to hit 45 mph! Thanks.

Your recipe is so much more than I first thought. I can’t wait to try it.
What hearty flavor pleasing soup this is. I will like it because I am a soup fan. But I think it would appeal to most of my family members. So that’s even better!
This cheeseburger soup turned into a cozy lifesaver on a rainy weekend. Browned some lean ground beef with onions, stirred in mustard, Worcestershire, tomato paste, and a bit of flour for thickness, then melted in Velveeta with beef broth and mushrooms. Topped bowls with crispy bacon bits and fresh diced tomatoes—creamy, flavorful, and way more satisfying than fast food runs. The kids even asked for seconds. Instead of ordering wings lately, I’ve skipped the hassle after seeing consistent patterns on Wingstop reviews . This homemade version keeps things simple and hits the spot every time!
