Tips and Tricks for Cheeseburger Soup:

• Use lean ground beef to avoid overly greasy soup.
• Russet potatoes are perfect for this soup because they are high in starch and break down easily.
• If you like, you may want to use Velveeta cheese in place of the cream cheese and the sharp cheddar cheese.
• Add some bacon to the top if you like.
