I love this time of year…when the last of the summer heat starts to fade away and the cooler temps make an appearance every now and then, giving us a taste of what’s soon to come. You all know I adore summer, but as soon as school is back in session, I’m ready to move on to days of open windows, flannel shirts and light, cozy blankets. There’s just something about fall that makes me really happy.

Many of you know my 12 year old daughter loves to garden (check out this adorable picture of her with some of her prized Garden Pickles). This year, especially, Ella’s garden has blossomed greatly, providing us with tons of fresh corn, bell peppers, onions, herbs, zucchini, tomatoes and more. We’ve had so many great meals thanks to her garden bounty! As summer winds down and soup season is upon us, I thought it’d be a great idea to make a cheese soup recipe featuring many of the vegetables Ella herself grew and delicious Cabot cheese. What better combination is fresh garden veggies from my daughters garden paired with the delicious cheese from Cabot’s family of dairy farmers?

Soup tends to be a cooler weather food, garden vegetables are summer, so don’t you think this Garden Vegetable Cheese Soup is a great way to transition from one season to the next? I sure do! The vegetables you choose to use can really be any you want from your garden (or Farmers Market). In addition, I chose Cabot’s Monterey Jack shredded cheese, but really, any of their wonderful shredded cheese varieties will do for this cheese soup recipe. I think some of the best options would be their Bacon Cheddar, Two State Farmers’, or the Fiery Jack variety (you know how much I LOVE that one!).
