Rating: 3.5 strawberries
Notes: The flavor of this dish is killer, but the cheese part was SO annoying!!! I suggest making a roux first, adding the cheese to make a cheese sauce and then adding it to the soup. Just adding cheese led to a sticky mess. It was also chunkier than I wanted, so straining it will help you out. I served it with yummy bread and more cheese on top. It is pretty incredible how easy this soup can be! Nothing better than summer in san fran and the urge to make hot soup to keep you toasty!
