Susan's Fabulous Cheese Soup

"This is a really great cheese soup, the carrots are perfect with the cheese. My step-mother makes this for a crowd and there is never any leftovers! Use a can of chicken broth or make your own stock. Works great with turkey stock after thanksgiving too. You can even substitute a vegi broth if you are vegetarian."

  1. "Fabulous" might be a bit exaggerated, but it certainly is not bad. Use a low salt stock, or it will turn out unbearably salty (because of the salt in the cheese).

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I am a SAHM of 3 - I really love to cook, but find it challenging between 4-6 in the evening, so I am constantly on the lookout for quick and yummy dishes. My favorite cookbooks are from my local junior league, they are Colorado Cache and Creme de Colorado. I also love the Fanny Farmer cookbook for basic stuff.
