Instructions

Saut Veggies and Flour

Start by melting the butter in a large pot over medium-high heat. Once it’s melted, add the celery and onion and cook them until they’re soft and fragrant, about 5 minutes. Sprinkle the flour over the veggies and stir it in well, cooking for another couple of minutes so it loses that raw flour taste.

Add liquids and simmer

Next, slowly pour in the chicken broth, water, and half-and-half while stirring to keep things smooth. Add the chicken, Cheddar cheese, buffalo wing sauce, and tomato soup to the pot. Let everything come to a gentle simmer, stirring now and then, until the cheese has completely melted into the soup—this usually takes around 10 minutes.

Serve with Blue Cheese

When it’s ready, ladle the soup into bowls and sprinkle each one with blue cheese crumbles before serving. Enjoy!

Why You’ll Love This Recipe

Serving Suggestions

Serve with crunchy celery sticks or toasted bread to add texture. A drizzle of extra blue cheese dressing on top can enhance the creaminess. Pair it with a simple green salad to balance the richness.

Storage Tips

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently on the stove to avoid separating the cheese. This soup can also be frozen, but the texture might change slightly after thawing.
