Ingredients

  • 1 lb. ground beef
  • 1 large onion, chopped 
  • 1 cup carrots, shredded 
  • 1 tsp dried scallions
  • 1 tsp dried dill
  • 2 Tbsp. butter
  • 1 Tbsp. flour
  • 3 cups chicken or vegetable broth
  • 2 cups peeled and diced potatoes (optional)
  • 2 cups cheese, shredded
  • 1 cup milk
  • salt and freshly ground pepper
  • 2 Tbsp. sour cream (optional)

Instructions

1

In a large sauté pan over medium heat, brown the beef, stirring occasionally and breaking up any lumps with the back of a wooden spoon, 7 to 10 minutes. Drain and set aside. In the same saucepan sauté onions, carrots, and dried herbs until tender. Add the broth, potatoes, and beef and bring to a boil. Reduce heat, cover and simmer 10-12 minutes or until potatoes are tender.

2

In a saucepan over low heat, melt the butter. Add the flour and cook for 3-5 minutes, stirring all the time. Add to the soup and bring to a boil. Cook for about 2 more minutes. Low the heat and bring to a gentle simmer. Stir in the cheese, milk, salt, and pepper. Cook and stir until cheese melts.

3

Taste and adjust the seasonings. Add the sour cream if you like. Ladle the soup into warmed bowls and garnish with cheese. Serve immediately.

    I had to read the title twice. Cheeseburger soup is something very new to me but as I look at it and the ingredients, I am becoming hungrier and hungrier!
