Cheeseburger Soup

Sharing is caring!

Do you love soup, but tired of having the same one all the time?

I was too, and one of my go to soup recipes, Taco Soup I made so many times that Noah refused to eat it!

Lucky for Noah, this Cheeseburger soup recipe turned out to be awesome!

Cheeseburger Soup

• • 1 pound ground beef or turkey

• • 1 cup chopped onion

• • 1 cup chopped carrots

• • 1 cup diced celery

• • 1 teaspoon dried basil

• • 1 teaspoon dried parsley

• • 6 tablespoons butter, divided

• • 3 cups chicken broth

• • 4 cups hash browns

• • ¼ cup all purpose flour

• • 12 ounces of Velveeta processed cheese, cubed

• • 1½ cups milk

• • ¾ teaspoon salt

• • ½ teaspoon pepper
  • ¼ cup sour cream

1. 1. Brown meat. Drain and set aside.
   2. In a large pot, add 2 T butter and add onion, carrots, parsley flakes, basil and celery. Saute until tender.
   3. Add the broth, potatoes and beef and bring to a boil. Reduce heat, cover and simmer 10 minutes.
   4. In small skillet, melt remaining butter (3 T) and add the flour. Cook and stir for 3-5 minutes or until bubbly. Add to the soup and bring to a boil. Cook and stir for 2 minutes. Reduce heat to low. Don’t worry if it turns into a thick paste, just stir it well and add it to the soup anyway.
   5. Stir in the cheese, milk, salt and pepper. Cook and stir until cheese melts. Remove from heat and blend in sour cream.
