Meet the Cook: Main-meal soups are something I'm always on the lookout for. Since I love cheese and our kids like anything with Mexican flavor, I knew this one would be popular at our house. I've served it with tacos, nachos or a loaf of bread. Our three children are grown, and we've just become proud grandparents. -Susan Salenski, Copemish, Michigan

Tips:

  • Use a good quality Monterey Jack cheese. A high-quality cheese will give your soup a richer, more flavorful taste.
  • Shred your own cheese. Pre-shredded cheese contains additives that can prevent it from melting smoothly.
  • Use a combination of milk and broth. This will give your soup a creamier texture and a more complex flavor.
  • Season your soup to taste. Salt, pepper, and garlic powder are all good starting points, but you can also add other spices like chili powder, cumin, or paprika.
  • Don't overcook your soup. Overcooked soup will be thick and gummy. Cook it just until the cheese is melted and the soup is hot.
