Cheese Soup – Customize Each Bowl!
The Ingredients You’ll Need to Make this Cheese Soup recipe are:
- Borden® Sharp Cheddar Cheese
- Butter, Heavy Cream (or milk)
- Onion
- Chicken Broth
- Salt
- Pepper
- Paprika
Note: It is best not to use pre-shredded cheese for this as it won’t melt as well as the block cheese will.
While Brady handles the cheese grating, Katy is getting started with the first step over on the stovetop.
I am specifically using Borden® Cheese here because it is delicious, all natural, and is made by a cooperative of over 8,000 family owned dairy farms across the United States. The cheeses they offer include: Mild Cheddar, Mozzarella, Mexican, Swiss, Sharp Cheddar, American, Colby Jack, and more. They are available in singles, shreds, chunks, slices, strings, and snacks! This is creamy, flavorful, delicious cheese made in our homeland and it just makes every dish better.
This cheese soup is as simple as can be to make.
- Melt butter in a medium stock pot over medium heat.
- Add onions and cook, stirring often, until browned.
- Add in broth, cream, and seasonings.
- Reduce to simmer and cook, stirring often, for about ten minutes.
- Add in shredded cheese and continue cooking, stirring constantly, until cheese is melted.

We have been trying to eat lunch together with our precious almost 2 year old granddaughter I love the look of love between her and her Granddaddy when they sit at the table together!
Sitting down at dinner time with my family is one of the best parts of the day.
This sounds awesome! Everyone goes each way now that they are 19, 20, 22, 25. I cook something everyone likes Sunday afternoon as a draw! A bit of a challenge with a vegan, meat and potatoes guy, chicken-fries-cheese young lady, and me that likes all. I found the common denominator
is potato so I try to fix a potato oriented dish every Sunday. Sorry for long story.
What a great dare! Even though baseball season has begun, (we have numerous practices, scrimmages & games) I accept this challenge! 🙂
It’s just my husband and I now, but we eat the vast majority of our meals together at the kitchen table. If it’s a pizza night, then it’s dinner on the couch for me and the BigDaddy! This soup looks delicious – it will be a good addition to my soup recipes.
Love the picture of Brady & Katy!!
This recipe sounds delicious and fun to make. I will make and share this with my family
