Steps for Soup
- In a large pot over medium heat, add the strips of bacon and cook until crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Remove and drain excess grease.
- Using the same pot with the bacon drippings, add chopped onions and peppers. Sauté for 3-4 minutes until tender.
- Add tender beef, seasoning with salt and pepper. Cook for 5-6 minutes until browned all over.
- Pour in the beef broth, stir well, and add cream cheese. Simmer for 3-4 minutes until fully melted.
- Combine cornstarch with water to create a slurry. Stir into the soup, cooking for an additional 3-5 minutes to thicken.
- Stir in shredded cheddar cheese and crumbled bacon until melted, about 2-3 minutes.
Cheesy Toast Preparation
- Toast bread slices until golden brown. Sprinkle with extra cheese and broil for a minute for a bubbly finish.
