"This recipe is from Cooking with Paula Deen magazine Nov/Dec 2009. This soup is warm and hearty. People of all ages loved it and it is a fast family supper. You can double it easily and freeze the second portion for later. It tastes more like a regular cheeseburger to me. I garnished mine with some cheddar cheese as well. Served with my Hamburger Bun Toasts recipe also from Paula Deen in that same issue that she used to accompany it. Hope you like it. Enjoy ChefDLH"

This was really good. I had to do a lot of searching to find one without celery, carrots and potatoes and I am glad I found this! I did add more bacon and cheese, I used beef broth instead of chicken and did not add the pickle relish. However I do not think that changed it enough to not be like the original. Thank you for posting a great recipe.

I am a busy mom both with stuff at home and my work. My kids and husband love to try new creations so they are right at home with my love of recipes. It is fun to make something and try several different ways at it. I love to try different enchilada recipes, recipes for various ice teas, and anything that gets food on the table on the weeknights. Restaurant recipes for the weekends are another favorite.
