Cheeseburger Soup Recipe

Yesterday was the first really cold day here in Ohio.  It was the perfect day for soup.  I wanted something creamy and hearty.  This has been a favorite recipe of mine for years.  I actually had some sourdough bread bowls and served it in those.  It turned out simply delicious. It looks so yummy that I forgot to take a picture before we devoured it.  Here it is afterward!  I hope you enjoy it!
