Veggie Cheese Soup

I have made a few different cheese soups since I've started cooking. They've all been fine. I thought this soup was on the verge of great! It had so much flavor and yummyness! Even though some may consider this gross, I think the diference was the Velveeta cheese. It just has so much flavor and thickness to it! You could always remove the ham from this recipe to make it vegetarian, but it does give it some extra yum!
