Here is the cheese burger soup recipe.

Cheeseburger Soup

1 T oil (I used butter instead)
1 t garlic, minced
1/2 green pepper chopped
1 medium onion, chopped
1 stalk celery, sliced
8-12 oz ground beef
1 beef bouillon cube or packet
2 cups of heavy cream (I used one cup turkey broth...its all I had and one cup 1/2 and 1/2 instead of 2 cups heavy cream)
4-6 oz sharp cheddar cheese, grated (I used 1/2 cheddar and 1/2 monteray Jack)

Heat oil in a soup pot. Saute garlic, onion, celery and green pepper until tender. Add the meat and brown, drain. Mix in the beef bouillon. Slowly
add the cream, stirring constantly, but do not let it boil ( the cream will curdle if allowed to boil.) Add the cheese. Stir until melted and serve.

I also added a small can of mushrooms, 1 tbsp liquid smoke, and a good helping of bacon bits. When I start adding more carbs, Im going to add some bbq sauce to it.

This was delicious....and unbelievably filling. So filling, for supper I was eating a 1/3 of what I normally eat, and if dh had of said, lets skip supper....I wouldnt have had any trouble with that. It certainly keeps my innerfatlady at bay!!
