If you\u2019re searching for an easy weeknight meal<\/strong> that\u2019ll warm everyone down to their toes, look no further than this beer and cheese soup recipe! When the weather turns chilly, I find that nothing hits the spot like a hearty homemade soup.<\/p>\n

You\u2019re going to fall in love with this beer and cheese soup recipe. It is delightfully silky and creamy and so simple to make<\/strong> but the flavor is so out-of-this-world delicious and complex that your family will beg you to make it again and again.<\/p>\n

I love that it is made with ingredients that I usually already have lying around. The most important part? The leeks – they add a really wonderful flavor to this hearty soup. It\u2019s thick, filling and satisfying – perfect for a cold day. I added some roasted vegetables which add a wonderful sweetness to balance out the tang of beer and cheese! <\/p>\n

I like to serve this creamy cheesy soup<\/strong> with a hunk of freshly baked German bread, and it\u2019s always a big hit, especially on a cold winter night!<\/p>\n

Where did beer and cheese soup come from?<\/h2>\n

I developed this recipe when I was writing my Canadian cookbook<\/a>. This cheese soup is considered a classic Canadian comfort food that I found wonderfully familiar as we have a similar soup back home in Germany.<\/p>\n

This dish is also considered a classic Midwestern recipe and is very popular in Wisconsin, where it is served topped with popcorn. Wisconsin was settled by German immigrants who brought with them their tradition of beer cheese soup.<\/p>\n

 There are many other European countries that have one or another version of beer soup – some cooked with egg yolk, some made with cider, others served in a bread bowl. In Canada, the traditional beer soup was livened up with more spices, onions, and sharp cheddar cheese evolving into a more hearty meal.<\/p>\n
