Instant Pot Cheeseburger Soup
We love a good burger, but after a while we just want a good twist on the classic recipe! That’s why my family and I love this amazing Instant Pot Cheeseburger Soup!
Making it in the Instant Pot is even more perfect because it is SO easy to make! I love this recipe as a great dump and go, especially on a busy day like we’ve been having lately!
Plus, this isn’t an expensive recipe – so it’s a win-win!
DOES THIS INSTANT POT CHEESEBURGER SOUP FREEZE WELL?
Yes! This recipe is great if you are looking for something you can freeze well. If you’re freezing it before you cook it, you may want to leave the potatoes out and just add them on the day of cooking. Otherwise, if they’re not completely covered in liquid, they will turn brown or black and look gross, even if they don’t taste gross.
CAN I LEAVE THE POTATOES OUT OF THIS INSTANT POT CHEESEBURGER SOUP RECIPE?
You sure can, especially if you are looking to make it lower carb. If you have some people that want it low carb and others that don’t, I would recommend serving some (cooked) potatoes on the side to add in. Or you could try adding radishes for faux-tatos instead.
I DON’T HAVE SHREDDED CHEESE, WHAT DO I DO?
It happens to the best of us! I’ve seen this made with sliced American cheese or by shredding your own…or, if you can handle it, you can go without, but you may have to change the name of the recipe to hamburger soup, lol!

Happenings From our Family of 9…..
This picture is of our 4 youngest children (out of 7). They were at Silver Dollar City in Branson, MO and this is one of their favorite rides. Nobody seems to remember what to call this ride, so they call it the “Uppy-Downy Thing”. All ages can ride it and they all seem to love it, too!
