This is the first time I've ever made a creamy soup and it turned out great. I wish it would have yielded more servings so I'll definitely double the recipe next time. I added garlic powder and pieces of rotissere chicken because I had it left over from last night's dinner. I only got one bowl - my husband ate the rest! It's wonderful.
YUMMALICIOUS!!

This soup was terrific Paula! I made this tonight for dinner along with a salad and French bread. Our stores didn't offer fresh pimento, so I used half of a large jar of diced and added about a half of a red bell pepper, diced. I also added some small bits of diced carrots and put in some cubed microwaved red potatoes. We topped it with some bacon bits and green onoin. "My people" loved it!!

I tried this recipe and altered it to make broccolli cheddar (my husband's favorite). I left out the pimento and used milk instead of cream, and then just steamed my broc. and added it toward the end. I also left out the cayenne and green onions. It was exactly what I was looking for.

I thought it was pretty good, but not excellent; however the kids loved it! And when you can find something your kids like...I'll definitely make it again. I forgot the cayenne pepper and didn't have cream so I used half-n-half instead. A bit too much onion for my liking, and I think I'll put it through the blender next time for a more creamy texture...hope that works. But, if you like cheese soup, you should try this recipe. It was super quick and well worth it.

I made this soup tonight for dinner and it was delicious! I didn't add the pimento because I didn't have it, but it turned out incredible anyway. It was a cold day and I was looking for comfort food, so I served this with roast beef sandwiches on artisan bread. MMMMMMMMM!
Sieved out the onions and red peppers = good!
10/07/2007 at 06:18pm
User: Juli from Edina, MN User Rating:
I chose to sieve out the onions and red peppers (I didn't have pimentos)as it was too strong for me. But it was great as just a nice cheese soup then after removing those things (still glad I cooked with them). Next time I'll expect to do it that way and just double the recipe to make up for less volume. I may try to use the blender and see how it all tastes like that. I prefer my cheese soups to be more of a thick puree texture. Glad I tried it!
awesome soup

it was awesome! i used celery and zuccuni instead of the pimento. my soup never really got thick but i added an extra 1/4 cup of cheese and made it that much better. plus i left off the end topping of green onions you dont need them. trust me use the cayanne pepper, i was afraid cause i dont like things spicy and it wasn't at all just added great flavor! yummy and totally comforting! thank you!

Made this soup today. Prep time did take a little longer. The only changes I made were: 4 TBS. Butter, 4 TBS. flour, 1/2 Cup Sharp Cheddar, and used Red Bell Pepper instead of pimentos. The texture is smooth and creamy. You can taste each ingredient, as the flavor blend is just right! It was easy to make and wonderful to eat. Will be making this again.

We love cheese. Period. I made this soup tonight paired with BLT subs on sub rolls brushed with olive oil/butter and toasted on one side, cheese covered and melted/toasted on the other. Can you say great dunkers? Even my husband who does not like soup liked this soup (with more crumbled bacon added). I also used roasted red bell pepper in place of the pimiento, used a bit too much as it somewhat overpowered the cheese, but was still excellent. I used a mixture of sharp cheddar and pepper jack cheese, 1-1/2 cups total. I agree totally with what another reviewer said about making sure you cook the cream mixture low and slow to achieve that creamy consistency. I've made Bechamel/Mornay sauce several times before and have always had a problem with it coming out gritty. So, I was worried about the soup doing the same since that's basically all it is is jacked up Bechamel/Mornay sauce. This soup was smooth, creamy, rich, and satisfying. Perfect for a toasty, crusty piece of fresh bread for dunking. Endless variation possibilities. Great winter soup, great lunch idea with salad and fresh bread. Very easy and quick to prepare.

My brothers and I made this soup for our family on a sunday night, and the whole family thought it was awesome. It's creamy, cheesy, and has great vegetables to tie it all together. Even though it says it takes a minimal amount of time, in reality it takes about an hour total. I would reccomend measuring out all of your ingredients prior to making this recipe, so you can easily throw everything in. This is a great soup.

I have a picky hubby - doesn't like alot of different things - but so far he has loved every Paula Deen recipe I have prepared - and this was no exception! The creaminess and flavor were so perfect together (We like a 'kick' so I was generous with the cayenne!) - I can't imagine changing a single thing about it! I used jared pimiento strips, to dice. And although it seems like alot of onion - sauteeing it as long as she says - I never even could feel the onion on my tongue - it was like it melted into the cheese creaminess! I served this with Giada's Gorgonzola and Honey Bruschetta on a cold night - and we were in heaven!!!! One complaint though - IT DOESN'T MAKE ENOUGH!!!!!! Next time we will double this recipe!!!!

I used jarred roasted red peppers for the pimentos and half and half for the cream because that's what I had on hand. I don't think it changed the integrity of the recipe. I was surprised at how tasty the soup was for such a quick and simple recipe. You could use other yummy melting cheeses and additions like broccoli or cubed potatoes. Give it a try.

After reading other's reviews, I made several revisions to this and it turned out delicious. I did not use the onion, but used 4 green onions instead. Saute' the white part & 2" of the green with the red peppper and reserve remainder of the green part for garnish. Red bell peppers are so close to pimentos in taste that I used a red pepper and roasted it first to give it that fuller roasted flavor. I increased the cheese to 2 cups, and the dash of cayenne turned into 3 dashes and it was perfect.

I had Winconsin Cheese Soup in a restarant one day and looked for a recipe on here to duplicate it. This recipe was by far the best I had ever eaten. I made it while I was on the phone talking to my mother in law, that is how easy it is. I did leave out the pimentos and put in diced roasted red peppers instead and added broccoli crowns at the last minute. I also added three times the amount of cheese! Oh my dear governor this was so scrumptious, had a big bowl today for lunch. Next time I am going to eliminate the broccoli and put in cauliflower and then again another time put in potatoes. The recipe is endless. Thank you dear Paula!!

This soup is very easy to make and yummy good. I did, however, find it a little lite on the cheese, so I doubled the amount of sharp chedder cheese.
Easy & Delicious!

Loved this soup, and so did my husband! Very easy, very quick, and very satisfying on a rainy night. I added steamed broccoli just before serving, omitted the pimentos as I didn't have any on hand. I can imagine many variations for this quick and easy soup, next time will try adding potatoes and crumbled bacon. YUM!

I thought this was good (if a little bland) and very easy to make. I wish I had read the reviews before I made this and I would have added the red bell pepper. I was thinking next time of adding some beer or white wine or maybe even some sherry. It will be fun to experiment with in any case.
Yummy!!

This soup was sooooooooooooooooo good! It was so simple to prepare also. I was unsure how it would be with the pimentos. I've never used them in a recipe before. I actually used the canned pimentos and they were great. I also used a little extra cheese and didn't use any green onions because I didn't have any on hand. I think the cayenne pepper gave it a kick.
A little bland

Not too cheesey, not to creamy. I didn't have pimento so I sauteed mushrooms with the onion.

I made this soup with a few modifications right after I watched the show. I don't like pimentos so I did not use them. I love garlic so I added a teaspoon of minced garlic with the onions. I also added about 1/4 cup more cheese. It was super easy to make and turned out delicious. I will make it again and add some brocoli. Thanks for a great recipe, Paula.
Sooo good!

I loved this one. I am a huge cheese lover but not so my husband. When he tasted this soup he said that he loved it!! It is not so overpowering with cheese for him yet cheezy enough for me. Just the right balance. Perfect to go with a grilled ham sandwich on a cold winter day!!
TASTY!

I didn't have sharp cheddar just mild so I used it. I also didn't have any pimento so I subbed a bit of roasted red pepper...since it was alreday cooked I delayed adding it until right before I added the flour. We had it for lunch w/ a salad & italian bread. This soup had great flavor & we will have it again & again.

How can something that was so easy to make taste so good? I loved it. Did not use the pimento b/c did not have any. Also used a little extra cheese-perfection!

I substituted roasted red peppers for the pimentos, and used 1 cup of cheese. It was awesome! My husband and I had it with big slices of sourdough bread for dunking. Next time we're serving it in bread bowls. YUM!

I made this soup tonight for my husband. I liked it, but he didn't care for it. He said it was boring and too cheesy. I couldn't find pimentos in the store so I left that out, but I think next time I might add some broccoli and potatoes for a little more variety. Another thing I think I'll do is use 3/4 of an onion. A whole one was just a little much. In the end it was a decent soup and I'll go for round two.

Fast and easy to make. I have made it several times. I enjoyed the recipe as is the first time. I added a mexican twist in later batches by adding canned green chilies and corn. I cut corn tortillas into strips and deep fried them to garnished the soup. I served this version at a party. It was a hit.
A Keeper For Sure!

My husband and I loved this! I added a few red potatoes that I microwaved a couple minutes, real bacon bits, and a little extra cheese. I'll use less onion next time though. Also, it's important to not cook the cream mixture too fast and hot or it won't turn out with that perfect, smooth consistency. Great Recipe!
YUM!
