Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb Ground meat of choice
  • 4 TBS Butter (divided into 1 TBS & 3 TBS)
  • 1 Onion, diced
  • 3/4 cup Carrots, thinly sliced or grated
  • 3/4 cup Celery, diced
  • 1 TBS Italian seasoning
  • 1/2 tsp Oregano
  • 1 tsp Salt
  • 1/2 tsp Pepper
  • 3 Potatoes (about 3 cups) peeled and diced
  • 4 cups Broth of choice
  • 1/4 cup All purpose flour (I use gluten free)
  • 4 cups Sharp cheddar cheese, grated
  • 1-1/2 cups Milk or half & half
  • 1/4 cup Sour cream

Method
 

  1. In a large frying pan, thoroughly cook ground meat, drain grease and set aside.
  2. In a large 5 quart pot with 1 TBS of butter, over medium to high heat, sauté carrots, onion and celery with the Italian seasoning, Oregano and salt/pepper until the onions have softened. About 2-3 minutes.
  3. Add the beef, potatoes and broth to the pot. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low & cover to simmer for 10-12 minutes or until the potatoes are tender.
  4. In a separate small frying pan, melt the remaining 3 TBS of butter over medium to high heat and stir in the flour until it starts to bubble. Then add the mixture to the soup, stirring well to combine.
  5. Stir in the cheese until fully melted. Add the milk & bring the soup back to a simmer.
  6. Stir in sour cream until combined. Enjoy!
