KITTENCAL'S CHEESY CHEESEBURGER SOUP

Kittencal's Cheesy Cheeseburger Soup image

If you prefer a thicker texture increase the flour slightly, I also add in a couple tablespoons Cajun spice and a couple of seeded and finely chopped jalapeno peppers for extra heat and also some canned or frozen corn kernels, if desired you may omit the cheddar cheese soup and add in 1/2 cup more of shredded cheese :)
