Beef broth serves as the base for this hearty soup. You could use chicken broth instead if that is what you have on hand. A cup of milk plus the 2 cheeses give it just the right amount of creaminess.

Special Ingredient

I like to add just a tablespoon of dill pickle juice. It really helps perk up the flavor without the soup tasting pickley. To add more pickle flavor, chop a few dill pickles and sprinkle them on top of the soup.

How To Serve

This Jalapeno Bacon Cheeseburger Soup serves 4-6 people. The leftovers reheat really well. I like to serve it with some crusty bread or toasted hamburger buns. If you want to be really clever, you can make toasted croutons out of hamburger buns and sprinkle them on top of the soup. It would also be great to serve it in a fresh bread bowl.
