- Meanwhile chop bacon into small pieces and cook in another pan.
- Blend up soup most of the way with immersion blender and then add in bacon.
- At the end add in as much cheddar cheese as desired. Salt and pepper to taste. You can add more or less red pepper flakes depending on how spicy you like it.
- This goes great with my fast and easy bread
