    Title: Cream Of Broccoli & Cheese Soup
    Categories: Vegetables, Cheese, Poultry
    Yield: 3 Servings

    1 qt Chicken stock
    10 1/2 oz Can cheddar cheese soup
    4 oz Shredded Cheddar cheese
    1 md Onion
    10 oz Box chopped broccoli
    1/4 c Butter
    8 oz Half & half
    Salt & pepper

    In a soup pot, combine the chicken stock, butter,
    half & half, and cheddar cheese soup.

    Let it cook on medium heat, while you prepare the
    vegetables.

    Peel and cut the onion in small wedges.

    Add the the broccoli and the onion to the pot.

    Let it simmer on low/medium for about 20 to 30 mins.

    Stir in the shredded cheese, until well combined.

    Using an immersion blender, blend until semi-smooth,
    leaving small chunks of broccoli and onion, for
    texture.

    Salt and pepper to taste.

    Serve w/crusty bread, toasted if you like.

    UDD NOTES: This is very reminiscent of Panera's
    version of Broccoli-Cheese soup. This was a "head
    recipe" that I made up as I went along. Reading the
    search engine results I see I left out carrot - I may
    add that next go. And I note that others use Mushroom
    Soup or Cream of Celery/Asparagus/Chicken ... all of
    which are interesting. -- 14 January 2021

    Title: Bacon Double Cheeseburger
    Categories: Beef, Pork, Cheese
    Yield: 1 servings

    3 sl Bacon ends or thick-cut
    - bacon
    2 sl Pepper-Jack cheese
    1/4 lb Ground chuck patty
    Salt & pepper
    1 Hamburger bun; lightly
    - toasted
    2 sl Dill pickle
    2 sl Tomato
    1 Handful shredded lettuce
    2 sl White onion
    Mustard, ketchup, mayo

    Place the bacon in a saucepan with enough water to cover
    it. Bring to a boil and then reduce to a slow simmer for
    about 45 minutes, or until the bacon shreds easily.

    Meanwhile, form the ground beef chuck into a patty and
    season with salt and pepper. Reserve.

    Remove the bacon from the water and place a small pile
    on one side of a large frying pan. Use a flat metal
    spatula to press down on the bacon as it cooks, forming
    into a thin, flat, patty.

    Place the beef patty on the other side of the frying pan
    and score with the edge of the spatula.

    Flip both the beef and bacon patty over, cooking on both
    sides. Continue to press the bacon patty with the
    spatula to flatten it. Cook bacon until it is crisp on
    both sides and resembles a hashbrown. Cook the burger
    patty to desired doneness.

    Begin assembling the burger. Slather mustard and mayo on
    the bottom half of the bun. Stack onion rings on top of
    each other and drizzle with ketchup. Stack tomato slices
    and pickles on top of onions. Top with lettuce.

    Place a slice of cheese on the bacon patty and the
    hamburger patty. Place the top bun on the bacon and
    transfer the bacon patty on top of the beef patty. Lift
    the whole contraption off the grill and place on top of
    the bottom half of the burger.

    Wrap up the burger in some waxed or parchment paper and
    dig in!
