A quick and creamy soup with ground beef, potatoes, and cheese, perfect for a cozy lunch or dinner.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1 medium onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 4 cups beef broth
  • 2 cups diced potatoes (about 2 medium)
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 cup milk

Instructions

  1. Heat olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add ground beef and cook, breaking it up with a spoon, until browned. Drain off any excess grease.
  2. Add the chopped onion to the pot and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute more until fragrant.
  3. Pour in the beef broth and add the diced potatoes, salt, and pepper. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce heat, cover, and simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender.
  4. Reduce heat to low. Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese until melted and smooth. Gradually whisk in the milk until the soup is creamy.
  5. Serve hot.

Notes

  • For a richer flavor, you can use cubed steak instead of ground beef. Brown it well before adding the onion.
  • To ensure the cheese melts smoothly, make sure the soup is not boiling when you add it.
  • This recipe can easily be doubled for a family portion.
