Making Simple Cheeseburger Soup

Use a heavy-bottomed pan or dutch oven to fry your bacon.

Cooking the ground beef with butter and setting it aside. There is always the option to omit the butter and use part of the bacon fat that is already in the pan.

Continue to mix the ground beef as it cooks to break up the meat lumps. Assure even browning of the meat.

Add the salt, spices, cream cheese, tomato paste, and yellow mustard after that.

Turn up the heat, add the cream and beef broth or stock, and boil the mixture for a short while.

Add the cheese and stir as the soup begins to boil and bubble. Please take note that using cheese that has not yet been shredded for this recipe will not yield the best results.

The soup will be fully heated and have a creamy, rich texture after simmering for 5-7 minutes.

After adding the bacon back into the soup, give it at least five minutes to rest so that the soup can thicken.

We did not use any flours or starches that would traditionally be used to thicken the soup because it is gluten-free and keto-friendly. If you can wait, the short break will give the cheeses a chance to thicken the soup.

If preferred, top with some chopped pickles.

Recipe Advice

calorie content be cut back? You can only use two slices of bacon, and you can eliminate or use less butter.
Soup leftovers? Cheeseburger soup can be frozen for three months.
Use cheese from a block rather than pre-shredded cheese for optimum results. The anti-caking powder in pre-shredded cheese causes it to not melt as smoothly and can cause lumps.
Overly salty? Use unsalted butter, broth low in sodium, and avoid adding salt or pepper. Serve alongside diced pickles.
Love pickles? Top with some finely sliced pickles.
The cheeses will help the soup become thicker if you let it cool for five minutes before serving. Add extra broth for a thinner soup.

Allow to cool for FIVE minutes before serving. Add extra broth for a soup that is thinner.
Add an extra 1/4 cup cream for a creamier texture.

remaining bacon fat? Refrigerate for up to a month before storing.

Cook nearly anything without using cooking oil by using leftover bacon grease, such in this simple recipe for Low-Carb Burgers with Chipotle Mayo.
