Instructions
Cook the Beef
- Heat a pot over medium heat. Add ground beef and cook until browned. Break it apart while cooking for even texture.
Remove Excess Fat
- Drain extra fat from the pot. This keeps the soup from becoming too greasy.
Add Butter and Vegetables

Add Flour
- Sprinkle flour over the mixture. Stir well and cook for one minute to remove raw flour taste.
Add Broth and Potatoes
- Pour in chicken broth and add diced potatoes. Stir well and bring to a gentle boil.
Simmer the Soup
- Reduce heat and simmer for 15–20 minutes until potatoes are soft and cooked through.
Add Milk
- Pour in milk and stir gently. Heat the soup without boiling to keep it smooth.
Add Cheese
- Add shredded cheddar cheese slowly. Stir continuously until melted and creamy.
Add Seasoning
- Add garlic powder, salt and black pepper. Mix well and adjust seasoning as needed.
Final Simmer
- Let the soup cook for a few more minutes. This helps flavors blend together perfectly.
Garnish and Serve
- Top with chopped parsley. Serve hot and enjoy a rich and comforting soup.
Notes
- Use fresh cheddar for best melting
- Do not boil after adding cheese
- Add bacon for extra flavor
- Use ground turkey as a lighter option
- Add pickles for cheeseburger taste
- Use cream instead of milk for richness
- Stir continuously to avoid lumps
