Cheeseburger Soup

Filed Under: Lunch, Proteins Tagged With: cheeseburger soup 8 Comments

At my small town wedding shower that was held in my hometown church basement…four years ago…everyone attending was asked to bring a favorite recipe. 
It gave me a box of recipes from all the local ladies, family members and friends who I love dearly and most importantly regarding the recipes, they all can cook.

Last week I was reminded of Cheeseburger Soup by Debbie on Life On A Kansas Ranch and remembered in my treasure box of recipes I had a recipe for Cheeseburger Soup I had never made. 
With fall officially here, soup season has arrived and I decided to try it out the recipe from my treasure chest.
Of course our seasons are never predictable on the North Dakota prairie. 
We have had snow, rain, wind and cold temperatures in September after a crazy hot and dry August. But this week it gloriously feels like summer again, at least during the mid-day hours…when I am not outside but instead looking out the window from my home office. The Indian Summer warms my soul…and my toes and the Cheeseburger Soup added to my warmth this week.
 Cheeseburger Soup by Rennae
My husband and son are meat and potato guys. Add milk, sour cream and cheese to meat and potatoes and they are sure to love it.
I had added a heavy dash of Cajun salt-free seasoning to my bowl because I like strong flavors. Debbie also had topping suggests on her blog and recipe that I will try like cilantro, bacon bits and a dollop of sour cream.
I had these left over potatoes from supper the night before and chopped them up along with four fresh potatoes. I didn’t peel them like the recipe called for…because let’s face it…I don’t really peel potatoes unless it is a holiday and my grandma is watching me. Sorry Grandma.
I also didn’t shred the carrots. I chopped them. I am such a recipe rebel rule breaker.
I made a double batch of Cheeseburger Soup so when the snow does indeed fly we can pull some from the freezer and have a quick meal of it before a winter basketball game of Hunter’s.
I pulled out a jar of fresh pickles from the fridge to serve on the side of the soup. My first ever pickles have turned out to be a success. If you come to the prairie to visit me, you are sure to be given a jar. First come, first served. They are flavorful, crisp and addicting…in my humble pickle eating opinion and really tasty with Cheeseburger Soup.
Cheeseburger Soup was a hit all around and certainly is becoming a soup staple at our house. 
What’s your favorite soup to make?

    Lucas loves your pickles. He can’t get enough of them. I have to hide them at the back of the fridge. Otherwise if he catches a glimpse of them when I open the door, he goes nuts. The rest of my family also loves them too.

    Hi Katie- Glad you enjoyed the soup!! I just made it myself last week and with fresh bread or buns…?? Yummy!! I buy the carrots shredded (in long shreds) and then it is easy to just dump in a handful for the soup. The boys also eat them in between times for a snack.

    The girls are so cute!! Little Miss Anika is getting so blonde!! Also enjoyed your football pictures of Hunter. Eric is playing freshman football at RR!! Its been a fun season so far!!

    Fun to have Robbie in GF!!

    Love- R and “boys”

    Tonight’s the night I do a post about the new lighting scheme in the living room–aka unveiling the new lamp!

    Cheeseburger soup looks so good! I think you should write out the recipe. I actually don’t cook but I do make knoephla soup at least once during the winter and it is reallly good.

    As the weather gets cooler I start thinking about eating soup. (for some reason I dont’ tend to eat it in the summer.) And the best soups have meat in them. This one I might have to try!

    A long time ago, we started Wednesday nights are Soup Night with the kids going to youth group at church, and Greg and I were in a small group Bible Study on Wed night. With only 1 left at home, we carry on the tradition! I try, but am not always successful, to make the soup Tues so it can be in the slow cooker all day. A fav, none of us could ever agree!! ha!

    The soup looks yummy. I will have to try your recipe this winter. I’m making some creamy scallop potatoes and ham with corn on the cob for supper tonight. Have not had this in years.

Welcome to the Prairie…

I am a mom of three kids and a wife to Nathan. Together we live on the North Dakota prairie, 97 miles from a Starbuck's. I share about family, food, farming and the prairie that I love. I used to commute 98 miles one-way to work but it required too much coffee. So now I am home, consulting, speaking, writing and primarily, juggling family life.
