Ingredients
- 1 lb ground pork

- 4 oz cream cheese softened and cubed
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella for topping

- Slowly stir in the chicken broth and milk. Bring the mixture to a boil then reduce heat. Simmer, stirring often, until the mixture thickens.
- Add the cubed cream cheese and stir until melted. Taste and adjust salt, pepper and cayenne as needed.
- For each serving, fill a soup bowl or broiler-proof serving bowl. Top each with shredded mozzarella and a sprinkle of toasted breadcrumbs. Optionally (and only with broiler safe dishes), broil until golden and melted
