Cheeseburger Soup from Food Ramblings

Hi everyone! I’m Elizabeth from Food Ramblings, and I am so excited to be paired with Katie for this recipe swap. When Katie and I were first matched, I gushed about my time in Provo and specifically my time at BYU and the obsession I have with their creamery’s chocolate milk and chocolate covered cinnamon gummy bears 🙂

So I don’t know about you, but I think there is nothing I love more than a good burger– big, thick, juicy hamburger. Well, I guess one thing is better- a cheeseburger! I wasn’t feeling well last week, so while I knew a cheeseburger wasn’t the meal to make me feel better, I decided that cheeseburger soup actually would help me since soup is good for you when you’re sick, right?!?

I adapted this recipe from Dinner, Dishes, and Desserts, and I hope that you like it as much as I do!
