Paleo Lunchbox: Your Kids will Love Our Paleo Cheeseburger Soup!
Paleo Cheeseburger Soup
I used to consider cheeseburgers to be a superfood. Here me out; they are a complete meal in one edible package. But alas, unless you are using whole, real food ingredients they may not be the best choice. That’s where this recipe comes in.
Cheeseburger Soup on Facebook Live
Did you happen to see the Facebook broadcast where Chef Ann made Cheeseburger Soup? It is super tasty and you can’t even tell that it is dairy free! Coconut milk and nutritional yeast give this soup the creamy cheesy flavors you’d expect in a ‘cheeseburger’ soup. The best part is that it is simple to make and pack into a thermos to take to school or work! It is also a great recipe for when you want a nice hearty bowl of soup on a cold wintry day. Furthermore, it would pair perfectly with our Southern Style Biscuits and a salad for delicious paleo meal the whole family will enjoy.
