Healthy Dill-icious Cheeseburger Soup {Instant Pot or Stove Top}

Healthy Dill-icious Cheeseburger Soup is my lightened up, Instant Pot version of cheeseburger soup. The dill pickles are definitely the co-star here. Haven't done pickles in your soup yet? Just trust me and thank me later. 

I won't even lie. I love burgers. Fast food burgers, actually... and the pickles are my favorite part.

When I travel to the US (which is many times a year), I always scope out the local burger game. In and Out, Sonic, and when in Texas, Whataburger is a must!

Just give me all the cheeseburgers all.the.time. 

So... would it be possible to make an instant pot burger? Umm.. not really.... but a Healthy Dil-icious Cheeseburger Soup. Heck Ya!

My version of cheeseburger soup is made with ground turkey and has dill pickles as the co- star.

This recipe is super simple, too. Saute the turkey in your Instant Pot. Add the remaining ingredients (minus the cheese) and set for FOUR minutes. Let it naturally release pressure for 10 minutes and stir in your cheese. Done!

You can do this on the stove top too, you will just need to have it on the stove for 20 - 30 minutes.

As per with most soups, this soup is EVEN better the next day! Perfect to make once, and have for lunches for the week.
