Looking for a delicious and comforting meal for those chilly fall evenings? Look no further than this hearty Bacon Cheeseburger Soup recipe. Packed with savory flavors and creamy textures, this soup will satisfy your cravings and warm you up from the inside out.
This recipe idea actually came from my homemade baked potato soup recipe. But anytime I made it my husband always said he wished it had more protein to help keep him full longer. He had the great idea to add in ground beef! I also made a few other changes to the recipe as I wanted to be able to cook the potatoes right in the pan vs roasting them separately in the oven.
The actual name of this soup is heavily debated in our house. I prefer to call this hearty soup bacon cheeseburger soup (hence the title), but my husband adamantly calls this “hungry potato soup” because it is the perfect soup for my farmer after a long cold day. It is especially requested during the heart of calving season as he is outside in the cold in negative temperatures.
