I was disappointed with this soup. The cheese did not melt well and the soup was bland.

This soup was a hit! I made it for a party and everyone raved about it. The cheese was melted and gooey, and the soup was so flavorful.

This soup was easy to make and so delicious. I used sharp cheddar cheese and it gave the soup a great flavor. I will definitely be making this again.
