🔥 How to Make It
- Cook the beef
In a large pot, cook ground beef until browned. Drain excess fat and set aside. - Sauté aromatics
In the same pot, melt butter and sauté onion + garlic until soft. - Add veggies & broth
Add potatoes (and any extra veggies). Pour in beef broth and simmer 10–15 minutes until potatoes are tender. - Make it creamy
In a small bowl, mix flour with milk (to avoid lumps), then add it to the soup. Stir well. - Combine everything
Add cooked beef back in. Stir in cream and cheese. - Simmer & season
Cook for another 5–10 minutes until thick and creamy. Add salt and pepper to taste.
