Gruyère is one of my favorite cheeses with a nutty and slightly salty flavor.  It is a Swiss cheese that is slightly hard and a creamy yellow in color.

Autumn (everyone’s favorite season) has arrived in the midwest disguised as a steamy southern summer.  Nonetheless, the few whispers of crisp weather we have had in the evenings inspired me to make soup (one of my favorite foods).  This recipe is quick, easy, and really full of flavor.  You can add a dash of habanero sauce if you like it hot, and be sure to serve it with your favorite crusty bread, warm from the oven.
