It's been a little bit, but I took a trip to visit my sweet sister in Montana and she cooked this up for me. It was SUPER good and my first thought was, "this can't be good for us."
This hearty and flavorful soup is so easy to make...simply mix the ingredients in a slow cooker and let it do the work for you. And to make it even better, stir in Cheddar just before serving and top with a sprinkle of chives.
