Yeek, I've been found out!

Thanks!

Have you tinkered with colby or cheddar for the cheese?

Not really. I worry that it would become too oily or that it would break-up and curdle if it was too hot since the soup will have been cooking for awhile. But if you do, let me know!

Are you sure this wasn't for me? firesmithsghost January 15 2010, 18:06:16 UTC

YUM!

Sure! It can be for you too. :) I love the recipe so why not share it with my f-list! :)

For someone with a twisted tangent you sure are a nice person!

Hee... the twisted is more of a 'skewed' tangent but I am very weird as well. ;)

I saw a similar recipe on the food network, I think it was one of Guy Fieri's shows...anyway- the restaurant he was visiting served this and she put tons of shredded lettuce in the soup, during the cooking process-not as a garnish. I was glad to see this recipe doesn't have lettuce. lol

EWWWWW!!! That sounds disgusting. It would be all mushy and just EW! No, I would have left that out even if it did call for it. I am not above tweaking recipes to my liking.

I've also used this one as a base for making cheese sauce for casseroles and tweaking it into other soups. It's nice and flexible.
