Cheese soup with croutons - FAQ About Ingredients, Baking Time and Storage

Can I use a different type of cheese for this soup?

Yes! Cheddar, Gouda, or Swiss work well. Avoid pre-shredded cheese, as it may not melt as smoothly due to anti-caking agents.

How can I make this soup vegetarian?

Replace the broth with vegetable broth and use plant-based butter for the croutons. Check that your cheese is vegetarian-friendly (some contain animal rennet).

What's the best way to store leftovers?

Cool completely, then refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 3 days. The soup thickens when chilled—thin it with a splash of broth or milk when reheating.

Can I freeze this cheese soup?

Freezing isn't recommended, as dairy-based soups may separate when thawed. If necessary, freeze without croutons and reheat gently while stirring.

How can I make the soup lower in carbs?

Skip the croutons or use low-carb bread. Replace milk with unsweetened almond milk, and increase cheese for richness.

What can I serve with this soup besides croutons?

Try roasted veggies, crispy bacon bits, or a side salad. A sprinkle of fresh herbs like chives adds great flavor.

My soup is too thick. How can I adjust it?

Thin it with extra broth, milk, or cream until you reach your desired consistency. Add gradually while stirring over low heat.

Can I make this soup in a slow cooker?

Yes! Combine all ingredients (except croutons) and cook on LOW for 2-3 hours, stirring occasionally until the cheese melts completely.
