This Slow Cooker Bacon Cheeseburger Soup is a crowd pleasing hearty soup full of ground beef, potatoes and bacon in a thick cheesy soup.  Top this with more bacon, cheese and scallions and you have a soup perfect for those chilly nights.

I love delicious and easy dinners that I can just throw in the slow cooker and I know that everyone will love and this Bacon Cheeseburger Soup is one of our favorites.

I love that I can just throw everything in the slow cooker and have a delicious, flavorful dinner that everyone really enjoys.  Whenever I find a dinner that everyone in my house ikes that is amazing because I have some picky eaters but they love this soup!  And for it to be in the slow cooker? That’s a double score!

This Slow Cooker Soup is full of flavor and I love to make it when the weather starts to get chilly.  This is a hearty dish that is budget-friendly. The base of this soup is potatoes and you can’t get cheaper than a bag of potatoes.  It also uses ground beef which is inexpensive.

This Cheeseburger soup tastes just like a bacon cheeseburger in soup form and what is better than that on a cold and chilly evening.  Also the leftovers just get better and better!

This soup is so creamy and cheesy and full of flavor.  It is comforting and hearty, just like comfort in a bowl.  You can also stretch it more by adding veggies like cauliflower or broccoli.

I love that you can customize this to your family’s taste, you can change up the cheese, use different potatoes, even swap out the ground beef for ground turkey.  

This is great served with a little side salad and some french bread or crackers for dipping in the thick, rich soup. It also is the perfect dipper for grilled cheese.  I like to serve it with these nice and fluffy Lunch Lady Rolls. 

Everyone is feeling the pinch with the grocery bill right now and you can’t get much cheaper than potatoes and a few other ingredients.  So this is a fabulous dinner when you are trying to save a few pennies and it makes a ton!  The leftovers are amazing!

This is one of my favorite go-tos when it is chilly outside.  It keeps everyone warm and fills all the tummies.

Next time you want a family-friendly dinner even the pickiest kids will love throw these ingredients together and let the slow cooker take care of the rest!
