Note

Serve hot with a dollop of sour cream and fresh parsley garnish if desired.

Storage: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently on the stove over low heat, adding a splash of milk if the soup has thickened too much.

Ingredient Substitutions: You can use sharp cheddar for a stronger flavor or a mix of cheddar and Monterey Jack for a milder taste. Vegetable broth can be used instead of beef broth for a lighter version.

Tip: To prevent the cheese from becoming grainy, ensure the soup is not boiling when you add the cheese and milk. Low heat is key for a smooth texture.

Variations: Add other vegetables like corn or peas during the last 5 minutes of simmering for extra nutrition and color.
