I have a new recipe to share with you that came from Aunt Krista. Just right to take the chill of a cold grey evening meal. I serve it with home-made bread and will share my favorite bread machine recipe with you also.
Cheeseburger Soup
K. Eidson
1 pound hamburger
4 T. butter (divided)
¾ C chopped onion
3 C chicken broth
¾ C shredded carrots
4 C diced peeled potatoes
¾ C diced celery
¼ C flour
1 t. basil
8 oz. Velveeta (cubed)
1 t. parsley flakes
1 ½ C milk
¾ t. salt
¼ C sour cream
¼ t. pepper
In a saucepan, brown hamburger, drain, set aside. In same pan, sauté onion, carrots, celery, basil, & parsley flakes in 1 T. butter until tender. Add broth, potatoes, & hamburger, bring to boil. Reduce heat, simmer 10-12 minutes until potatoes are tender. In small skillet, melt remaining butter. Add flour, stir 3-5 minutes until bubbly. Add to soup, bring to a boil. Cook 2 minutes. Reduce to low – add cheese, milk, salt, & pepper. Cook until cheese melts. Remove. Add sour cream.
I always double this recipe. It is so yummy, I suggest you do the same!
I was really surprised when both my sons ate this like there was no tomorrow! I chop my onion and celery up VERY fine and grate the carrots to help conceal them. The oldest is pretty easy to slip stuff by him, but the youngest actually picks apart his food to see what all is in it. The onion and celery cooked down nicely and passed his inspection. He ate two bowls of it! I was such a HAPPY mom! Something new to cook that EVERYONE loved.
Enjoy!
