Ingredients

  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 1 small onion, diced
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 3 cups potatoes, peeled and diced
  • 2 cups chicken broth
  • 1 cup milk
  • 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1/2 tsp paprika
  • 1/2 tsp dried parsley
  • Crumbled bacon (for garnish)
  • Chopped green onions (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. In a large pot over medium heat, cook the ground beef until browned. Drain excess grease.
  2. Add diced onions and minced garlic to the pot, cooking until soft and fragrant.
  3. Stir in the diced potatoes, chicken broth, and milk. Bring to a simmer and cook for 15-20 minutes until potatoes are tender.
  4. In a separate pan, melt butter and whisk in flour to create a roux. Cook for 1-2 minutes, then slowly stir in the heavy cream.
  5. Gradually add the roux to the soup, stirring constantly to thicken.
  6. Stir in shredded cheddar cheese, salt, pepper, paprika, and dried parsley. Mix until the cheese is fully melted.
  7. Serve hot, garnished with crumbled bacon and chopped green onions.

Notes

For a thicker soup, use an immersion blender to blend a portion of the soup before adding the cheese. You can also swap ground beef for turkey for a lighter version.
