4 tablespoons butter or 4 tablespoons olive oil
1/4 cup onion, finely chopped
2 carrots, scraped & diced into 1/4 pieces

  • In a heavy skillet, fry the bacon over medium heat until brown and crisp around the edges, and most of the fat has cooked off.
  • Transfer to paper towels to drain.
  • Fry the bread in the bacon grease so that it is crisp and brown on both sides.

This soup is definitely not for the faint of heart. It's very rich and cheesy.

The soup was a little too greasy for my taste. I might try skimming the fat off the top next time.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my soup was too salty. I think I'll use less ham next time.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my soup turned out bland. I might have used the wrong type of cheese.

I didn't have any fresh parsley, so I used dried parsley instead. It still tasted great.

The soup was a little too thick for my taste, so I added some milk to thin it out.

I'm not a huge fan of ham, so I omitted it from the soup. It was still very good.

I wasn't sure how I would feel about the combination of cheese and ham in a soup, but I was pleasantly surprised. The flavors really work well together.

I love how easy this soup is to make. I was able to throw it all together in about 30 minutes, and it turned out perfectly.

This soup is the epitome of comfort food. It's rich, creamy, and cheesy, with a hint of smokiness from the ham. I served it with a side of crusty bread for dipping, and it was absolutely perfect.
