The Best Cheeseburger Soup

(Don’t forget to check out all my recipes HERE , and also by scrolling all the way to the bottom of this post for some of my favorite comfort foods. Bonus: I’ve also linked up my favorite desserts, and appetizer recipes at the bottom, too!)

Let’s Make Some Soup!

Begin by browning and crumbling the ground beef. Drain the excess grease and set aside.

Dice your potatoes (kind of like the french fry part of your cheeseburger meal, right?), the onion, and the carrots.

I know what you’re thinking….”Carrots in a cheeseburger?” The carrots are optional, but it’s a good way to add a little extra flavor and sneak in some veggies. I diced them small, but you could also finely grate them, and then they’d just “disappear” into the soup. Your call.

Melt butter in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add garlic, onion, carrots and Worcestershire. Sauté, stirring frequently, until onions soften up, about 2 or 3 minutes.

Pour in the broth, and add the potatoes. Bring to a boil; reduce heat and simmer until potatoes are tender, about 12-15 minutes.

When the potatoes are tender, stir in the milk, the cooked ground beef, the cheese, and salt and pepper. Keep on stirrin’ until the cheese is melted and the soup is creamy and bubbling. Oh, yeah.

Don’t forget about the toppings…

Now, this is where it gets all cheeseburger-y. This soup is all about the toppings, friends! You definitely do not want to skip these, or you’ll just have a cheesy ground beef soup. I mean, it will still be good, but it won’t be extra good. Just sayin’.

The tomatoes, bacon, extra cheese, green onions…. and pickles. Pleeeeaase don’t skip the pickles! Yeah, yeah, it sounds weird, I get it. But the zesty dill from the pickles is what really sends this over the top and makes it reminiscent of an actual cheeseburger. You gotta trust me on this one, guys.
