How To Make Cheese Soup Like World-Class Chefs Do

 

This soup is so incredibly easy to make.  It is full of flavor, texture and has lots of ooey gooey cheese.  Although this soup does tell you to use specific cheeses for it, feel free to swap some, if not all, out for your favorite kind of cheese.  It could be a favorite kind of cheddar, or maybe a different cheese altogether…whatever it is- try it!

Also, feel free to add as many toppings as this as you’d like.  I like to top it with everything I would a baked potato. That would be bacon, chives, a little sour cream and of course, more cheese!
