Beer Cheese Soup

There is nothing better than a big bowl of homemade soup, especially one made with 2 of my favorite ingredients: beer and cheese! This beer cheese soup deserves its own award.

Now, this one probably won’t win any diet awards but man oh man is it good! But beer and cheese soup is the ultimate comfort food, the perfect meal for the big game, or maybe just because! Serve it with warm soft pretzels and (more) beer for a quick & hearty meal everyone will love!

Here is what you need:

Step 1: Chop shallots, celery, and carrots and set aside.

Step 2: Melt butter in a saucepan over medium-high; add shallots, carrot, and onion and cook until soft, 4 minutes.

Step 3: Add flour to butter and vegetables and cook for 2-3 minutes more.

Step 4: Then add the stock, milk, a pinch of salt, and pepper and stir, cook on medium heat for 30 minutes.

Step 5: Then add the shredded cheddar and beer and stir and cook on medium heat until soup comes to a rolling boil. Soup will continue to thicken as it cooks.

Step 6: Once cooked, spoon into bowls and serve hot with warm soft pretzels.
