The Ingredients You’ll Need to Make this Cheese Soup recipe are:
- Borden® Sharp Cheddar Cheese
- Butter, Heavy Cream (or milk)
- Onion
- Chicken Broth
- Salt
- Pepper
- Paprika
Note: It is best not to use pre-shredded cheese for this as it won’t melt as well as the block cheese will.
While Brady handles the cheese grating, Katy is getting started with the first step over on the stovetop.
I am specifically using Borden® Cheese here because it is delicious, all natural, and is made by a cooperative of over 8,000 family owned dairy farms across the United States. The cheeses they offer include: Mild Cheddar, Mozzarella, Mexican, Swiss, Sharp Cheddar, American, Colby Jack, and more. They are available in singles, shreds, chunks, slices, strings, and snacks! This is creamy, flavorful, delicious cheese made in our homeland and it just makes every dish better.
This cheese soup is as simple as can be to make.
- Melt butter in a medium stock pot over medium heat.
- Add onions and cook, stirring often, until browned.
- Add in broth, cream, and seasonings.
- Reduce to simmer and cook, stirring often, for about ten minutes.
- Add in shredded cheese and continue cooking, stirring constantly, until cheese is melted.

This is a great challenge in today’s busy world. As a child we had dinner every night together. Now with kids in sports and so many other activities it’s not as easy. Still it’s important to have that bonding time. Thank you Borden and Christi Jordan !

When my kids were growing up, and my husband was with us, sitting down as a family for dinner was something we tried to do nightly. Having either one of my kids and their families home, is such a treat!! And one of the biggest joys is to sit down as a family. It’s also fun to go to their house and see that they continue the tradition!! This recipe sounds like a great one for a cool spring night!!
My family and I just got up from the table. We love that time to just sit and put the phones away and enjoy eating I may have to fix different foods for everyone but well worth it. And my table is always blessed with different cheeses when we sit down.
We always sit down for dinner together and without the TV. 🙂
Great idea for a great giveaway!!
Great looking recipe!
My family always has their suppers/dinners sitting together at the kitchen table!
I think your version of this cheese soup (with the broccoli and ham added in) sounds and looks wonderful! Alas, I don’t have either ham or broccoli in the house right now…but I do have an awful lot of cheese… 🙂
Absolutely will take the dare! I love family sit down dinner…you learn a lot! The Borden cheese soup sounds great! I will certainly try it!!
Thanks for all your great recipes and blogs!
