Grocery List
  • 1 onion
  • 1 lb. ground beef
  • ¾ c. carrots
  • ¾ c. celery*
  • 1 tsp. Italian seasoning
  • 1 tsp. salt
  • ½ tsp. pepper
  • 6 c. chicken broth
  • 4 c. potatoes
  • 4 T. butter
  • ½ c. flour
  • 1½ c. milk
  • 5 (-ish) c. shredded sharp cheddar cheese
Here's how...
  1. Chop the onion, carrots, celery and potatoes quite small and set them aside.
  2. Brown ground beef and onion. Drain the grease and add in the carrots and celery and stir.
  3. Add in the Italian seasoning, salt and pepper.
  4. Add in the chicken or beef broth and the potatoes and let it simmer for 20 minutes or until the potatoes are tender.
  5. In a skillet, melt the butter and whisk in the flour. When combined, let the mixture cook for 2-3 minutes to cook off the flour taste. Slowly whisk in the milk. Whisk until smooth and thickened. It will thicken when it is almost at a boil.
  6. Add the cheese. Whisk the cheese sauce into the meat/veggie mixture until its all blended and beautiful.
  7. Garnish with bacon and extra cheese if desired.
