  Chef Meg, could you please recalculate the nutritional value of this soup? When I checked the "nutritional breakdown by ingredient", I saw that you forgot to include the cheese! That's really going to change the fat grams and calories per serving! - 3/2/13

  I make a soup similar to this, but without the cheese, milk or flour. I cook butternut squash separately, drain it, leaving a little water, then mash it down and add that all back to the soup. It makes a wonderful thickener without the calories of the flour or milk. - 4/2/13

  Delicious! It really does taste like cheeseburger especially with the lettuce on top. My kids were amazed at how they didn't taste any carrot or celery. There is only one thing I will do different next time I cook it. I will precook the potatoes. - 1/10/12

  I have noticed a trend with Chef Megs recipes where the calorie count is listed lower than the ingredient list actually amounts to. I ALWAYS double check any recipe from Chef Meg. I eat 100-1200 calories a day and a 200 calorie difference is huge for me. - 12/2/13

  When you add the counts for 2% cheddar and evaporated milk the increases I found are: Calories +80, Fat +4.8, Sat. Fat +3, Cholesterol +17.5, Sodium +197.5, Potassium +50, Carbs +1.5 and Protein +6.3. Good soup, but not sure if the extra calories and fat fit my meal plan.

  This was really good-I used about 3/4 of a cup of milk total but followed the rest of the recipe as it. I've made the original cheeseburger soup recipe-the whole family liked this version better. - 1/19/12

  My teenager didn't care for this said it didn't taste anything like a cheeseburger...and while I wouldn't say it tastes like a big mac I absolutely loved this soup! I did precook the potatoes before adding to the soup which saved on cooking time. Thanks Chef Meg..for this quick and easy recipe! - 1/18/12

  There are also no calories in the calculations for the evaporated milk.

  There is 360 calories of 75% reduced fat cheddar in the calories count. I never bothered to look for the 50 % That will be much higher still.
  It is in mm tracker so I will make a note on VERIFY. Pat in maine. - 5/20/13

  Sounds good but what do you do with the flour? I'm going on a limb and say that it will be used as a thickener... but... - 9/11/12

  Are you thickening the soup with the whole wheat flour when the spices are added before adding the stock? I don't see that ingredient referenced in the directions. - 9/11/12

  Fantastic recipe, but uncertain how 4 cups of liquid and all those piles of meat, veg and cheese can boil down to 4 one cup servings of soup. So uncertain how to calculate cals/Servings. Advice? I made double quantity this time!! - 10/21/14

  Soup was delicious! My family isn't really into puréed, creamy soups, so I actually left everything whole and just added the cheese on top of the soup in our bowls, controlling the cheese amount. The potatoes also need to cook for a lot longer than the recipe states. - 3/17/14

  Beef, cheese, evaporated milk, 4 cups of chicken stock...this sounds like a very acidic and high cholesterol meal. I would suggest avoiding the GMO canola oil as well. - 1/16/13

  Here is what you do with the flour. In the directions it says... Cook the vegetables over moderate low heat for 10 minutes, then add the spices and FLOUR, and cook another two minutes, stirring often. - 12/31/12

  Amazing! I added frozen veggies at the end for more substance and I did put more cayenne pepper (by mistake, I thought I had to add 1/2 teaspoon of cayenne) but we like spicy and it was not too hot. Oh and I didn't add any flour - it was not in the directions so I missed it. - 10/9/12

  I am so going to make this soup, only KETO-fy it. I am going to omit the wheat flour & use xanthan gum to thicken. Regular burger, olive oil, full fat cheese, heavy whipping cream & leave out the potato. Should be great! - 8/17/16

  1 out of 8 family loved this soup for lunch. I chopped up some leftover homemade bake french fries instead of the potato and only used half the beef. I used water and beef soup base instead of chicken broth. I also used a can of tomatoes and doubled everything else. It will be back on the menu soon. - 2/22/15

  Tried the original & felt it needed more flavor so I used a full lb of ground beef because we like it beefy & added 2 cloves of garlic with the onion. Omitted the celery but added 1/2 t celery seed, a pinch of cumin, & 2 t chili powder to the spices and didn't puree it- just served it chunky. YUM! - 12/28/13

  This looks so fabulous. I love cheeseburgers but stay away from them because of the fat and cholesterol. I have a pound of grass fed beef in my freezer. After I am done with my 10 day juice fast, I think I will make this one! looking forward to it! - 5/20/13
