Cheeseburger soup has all the flavors of a classic cheeseburger in a creamy, cozy one-pot dinner. Top it with bacon, cheese, and all your favorite burger toppings!
In a large stock pot cook the ground beef over medium high heat, breaking apart. After it begins to brown add onions, and garlic. Cook until the meat is cooked through, and the onions are soft. Drain any fat from the pan.
In a liquid measuring cup whisk together milk and flour until smooth. Slowly stir into the simmering soup. Cook until the soup starts to thicken slightly.
1/4 cup all-purpose flour, 1 1/2 cups milk
Add the cheddar cheese, 1/2 cup at time, stirring after each addition.
2 cups cheddar cheese
Once the cheese is all added stir in the mustard, ketchup, salt and pepper. Cover and simmer for 10 minutes.
For a heartier soup, add diced potatoes with the broth and simmer until tender before adding the milk mixture. Leftovers keep in the fridge 3 to 4 days and can be frozen.Adapted from The Runaway Spoon
