Cheeseburger And Pickle Soup Recipe

Cooking Directions

• STEP 1.In a large pot, brown the ground beef over medium heat. Drain excess fat if needed. Add diced onions and minced garlic to the pot. Cook until the onions are softened.

• STEP 6.Pour the cheese mixture into the soup, stirring well to combine. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
• STEP 7.Let the soup simmer for an additional 5 minutes to ensure it is heated through.
