Recipe Notes
- The important thing to do with this recipe is keep a close eye on your pot. Whether your are thickening the broth or adding in the milk, it could burn pretty quickly, if you don’t watch it.
- When adding the milk, don’t forget to lower your heat. Over heating the milk and cheese could cause it to separate.
Can I Use Any Kind of Cheese?
Yep. This will work with any flavor cheese. We like a sharp cheddar, but, go with your favorite. Just be sure to stick with 2 cups and that it is shredded. The shredded will melt quicker.
Storage
Keep any leftovers in a covered container in the refrigerator. I don’t recommend freezing this soup due to the milk/cheese content.
