A wonderful soup that’ll take the edge off winter’s chill. Bacon cheeseburger soup is thick, creamy, and loaded with deliciousness. I am totally smitten by the fact that this soup contains one whole jalapeno chile pepper. I like my soup to have a bit of a bite to it and this pepper does just that. Granted, it’s not so hot that the kids can’t eat it so no worries about that. My husband says that he gives this bacon cheeseburger soup two thumbs up.
