While soup simmers, grate the cheese.  I found this quality medium cheddar cheese at Costco.  I do not recommend pre-shredded cheese because it can be resistant to melting and won’t incorporate well.  Reserve a small amount of the cheese for garnishing bowls.

Serve the soup immediately.

Enjoy!
Cheers!
