admin Crockpot Cheeseburger Soup
It’s made with simple ingredients like cooked ground beef, broth, potatoes, carrots, onions, cheese, milk, and butter, along with a few common seasonings. Just toss everything into the crockpot and let it simmer all day. This indulgent soup is a guaranteed crowd-pleaser, earning five stars every time I serve it, and its hands down my favorite soup recipe.
Crock pot soup was first made when the crock pot was invented by Irving Naxon who used it as a bean cooker for cholent in 1940. However, it was the Rival Company that patented it in 1971. Soup has been around since 20,000 BC though, so we have to thank the Neanderthals for this delicious soup recipe.
