SusieQusie's Note:

Quick as a wink to make. You can vary the cheese to suit your taste and use fresh potatoes instead of hashbrowns if you prefer.

This was a really good soup! I love how fast it cooked up. I didn't have the Cubed potatoes so I did use the shredded ones, and really liked it. I am thinking about next time adding some corn and tomatoes. :) Thank you so much for sharing!

Wow, this is so easy to make. I didn't expect it to taste as good as it does. It is delicious. It's such a great comforting soup to make on a cold day. I will definitely be making this one again and again.

Tastes like you're eating a cheesebuger.....but with a spoon! This soup is a great kid-pleaser and it's so quick to make. I added a bit more potatoes, just because I wanted to finish the bag. I'd love to make this again and add a can of diced tomatoes. Tomatoes are great on cheeseburgers, right? Thanx for sharing this simple delicious soup.
