Homemade Cheeseburger Soup
I have had this fascination lately with foods that you would normally eat one way, but have found a completely different way to prepare it. My latest find is this Homemade Cheeseburger Soup! This is the exact kind of recipe that I’m talking about. When you usually think of a cheeseburger, it involves a bun and maybe the grill. This will give you close to that same taste but with a different take on it. This way you don’t have to even go near the grill and you can still have a warm hearty meal!
