Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 1 lb ground beef browned and drained
  • 4 russet potatoes peeled and diced
  • 2 carrots chopped
  • 2 celery stalks chopped
  • 1 onion chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 4 cups beef broth
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 2 tbsp flour or cornstarch
  • 2 cups Velveeta cheese cubed, or use shredded cheddar
  • salt and pepper to taste

Equipment

  • Crock Pot
  • Skillet

Method
 

  1. In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef until browned and crumbly. Drain excess grease and transfer to the Crock Pot.
  2. Add chopped potatoes, carrots, celery, onion, and garlic to the Crock Pot.
  3. Pour in beef broth, season with salt and pepper, stir gently. Cover and cook on low for 6-8 hours or high for 3-4 hours.
  4. Whisk flour with milk and add to soup, followed by heavy cream and cheese. Cook on high for an additional 30 minutes, stirring until creamy.
  5. Taste and adjust seasoning. Serve hot with optional toppings like shredded cheese, bacon, or chopped pickles.

Notes

Make-ahead tip: Brown the beef and chop veggies the night before. Soup keeps for 4 days in the fridge or can be frozen. Reheat with a splash of broth or milk.
