How to make Cheeseburger Soup
Step 1: Cook the beef in a 3-quart saucepan until brown. Once cooked, drain and set aside.
Step 2: Saute the onion, carrots, celery, basil, and parsley in a tbsp butter in the same pan for about 10 minutes until the vegetables are tender.
Step 3: Into the pan, pour in the broth and add in the potatoes and the beef back. Bring this to a boil. When boiling, decrease the heat, cover the pan, and simmer for about 10 to 12 minutes until the potatoes are tender.
Step 4: In the meantime, melt the rest of the butter in a small skillet. Once melted, add in the flour. Cook for about 3 to 5 minutes, stirring continuously until bubbly. Add this to the soup, then bring the mixture to a boil and continue to cook for another 2 minutes.
Step 5: Adjust the heat to low, then add in the cheese, milk, salt, and pepper. Cook further, stirring until the cheese has melted.
Step 6: Remove the pan from the heat and quickly stir in the sour cream.
