Cheddar Cheese Soup
This is the recipe for Cheddar Cheese Soup. It’s a recipe my Mom cooks at the holidays, and it’s easy and awesome. It’s a great dish for the cold months because it coats your mouth, warming your entire body. Also it goes great with a hot ham or turkey sandwich. You can even dunk a sandwich into the soup for a truly spectacular taste. Enjoy.
