Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 3/4 cup chopped onion
  • 3/4 cup shredded carrots
  • 3/4 cup diced celery
  • 1 teaspoon dried basil
  • 1 teaspoon dried parsley flakes
  • 4 tablespoons butter (divided)
  • 3 cups chicken broth
  • 4 cups peeled and diced potatoes
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 cups Velveeta cheese, cubed (or shredded cheddar cheese)
  • 1 1/2 cups milk
  • 3/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 cup sour cream

Instructions

  1. In a large pot, brown the ground beef over medium heat until fully cooked. Drain and set aside.
  2. In the same pot, melt 1 tablespoon of butter. Add chopped onion, shredded carrots, diced celery, basil, and parsley flakes. Sauté until the vegetables are soft and aromatic.
  3. Pour in the chicken broth, add diced potatoes and the cooked beef. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, cover, and simmer for 10–12 minutes until potatoes are tender.
  4. In a separate skillet, melt the remaining 3 tablespoons of butter. Whisk in the flour and cook for 3–5 minutes until bubbly to create a roux.
  5. Gradually add the roux to the soup, stirring constantly. Bring to a gentle boil and cook for 2 minutes to thicken.
  6. Reduce heat to low. Stir in the cheese and milk until melted and smooth. Season with salt and pepper.
  7. Remove from heat and blend in the sour cream just before serving for a creamy finish.

Notes

  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • This soup can be frozen; just leave out the sour cream until reheating.
