Bacon Cheeseburger Soup Tips

Can you use ground turkey or chicken instead of beef when making bacon cheeseburger soup?

Just like with slow-cooker sloppy joes and other dishes, ground turkey or chicken can be used in this cheeseburger soup. Both provide just as much flavor but with less fat. We have a lot of great ground turkey recipes if you're looking for a healthier alternative to beef.

Can you make bacon cheeseburger soup on the stovetop?

Absolutely! Just keep an eye on your soup and stir regularly as it does contain milk and cheese. Similar to other creamy soup recipes, if you don’t stir occasionally, you may run the risk of the dairy scorching the bottom of your saucepan.

What other toppings can you put on bacon cheeseburger soup?

The beauty of this soup is you can add whatever burger toppings you normally love, and it’s sure to be a hit. Similar to replacing ground beef with turkey, for a healthier option, you can use turkey bacon for an equally delicious garnish.
