Billy O’s Cheeseburger Soup

This soup is one of my favorites and is great on a cold winter evening. I love the cheesy flavor and each bite brings in hamburger and vegetables. This is a cozy comfort food you’ll crave all year long.

And don’t be afraid of changing a few ingredients to suit your tastes.
