Hearty Cheese Soup image

This soup is a stick-to-the-ribs pleaser. Chunky and cheesy, this rich, creamy soup is simply wonderful during cold winter months. If your family prefers the flavors of cheeseburger soup, substitute lean ground beef for the ground turkey. -Cathy Smith, Amarillo, Texas

I'm allergic to dairy, so I can't eat this soup. But it looks delicious!

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my soup turned out grainy. I think I might have overcooked it.

I found this soup to be a bit bland. I think I'll add some more spices next time.

This soup is a little too cheesy for my taste. I think I'll try using less cheese next time.

I made this soup for a party last weekend and it was a huge success. Everyone loved it! I especially liked the addition of the bacon and the croutons.

This cheese soup is amazing! I've made it several times now, and it's always a hit. The combination of sharp cheddar, Gruyère, and Parmesan cheeses is perfect, and the soup is so creamy and flavorful.
