Ok, I know, I haven't posted a recipe in a while but frankly, I haven't made anything worth posting about... until yesterday. My mom sent me her recipe for Cheeseburger Soup and although yesterday was pretty warm here in NE Ohio, I just had to make this soup. It is genuine cheesy cheeseburger in a bowl. My mouth is watering just writing about it...I know...pathetic. Anyway, here's the recipe I used. My mom adds more ground meat than I did but I'm cheap frugal.
Here's how I made it:
Place all the below ingredients into a large pot.
1 1/2 pound ground meat cooked ( I use ground turkey)
11 Small Potatoes diced
2 large onions chopped (could use onion flakes too)
1 cup diced celery
1 1/4 cup shredded carrots
2 TBSP parsley flakes
Cover veggies with water and add 1/4 cup (or to taste) of chicken soup base. Cook until veggies are soft and cooked down.
Once the veggies have cooked down, add:
12 oz American Cheese
1 pkg of cheese mix that came in a boxed macaroni & cheese
Stir until completely melted and then serve.
YUM YUM

Okay, I just ate dinner and I'm still craving this! It looks delicious! Have you or your mom ever tried it in a crock pot? I'm guessing it would be the same. Think I will try it in the crockpot.

Michelle,
ReplyDeleteI have NOT tried the soup in my crock pot but I'm sure it would work. I make my potato soup in the crock pot all the time. I would just add the cheese right before serving!
This is making me hungry. I need to make some extra next time and try to hide it from my kids! :)
Hi there- found you through Somewhat Simple's hop and am a new follower. This sounds so good! I wold love to make this- but I might have to find a substitute for the dried cheese mix- they don't sell macaroni in a box here! I hope you have time to follow my life in South Africa by http://withoutcomplexities.blogspot.com
ReplyDeleteHave a great week!
Visiting you from Thrifty Thursday! I love this idea. My daughter was recently put on a gluten free diet, and I could definately make this work for her! And I would love to dig in too! Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteI love cheeseburger soup...this is going in to favorites!!
ReplyDeleteYou use the same design as I do on my blog.
I also homeschool. Of 4 children, I only have my 14 yr old daughter left at home.
I would love it if you would take time to link up some of your posts each week to my Frugal Friday's linky. I see some great posts and we have so much in common too.
What a great recipe! Would you come over to my party "Cast Party Wednesday" and share some of your recipes?
ReplyDeleteThanks,
I hope to see you there!
Hi Carrie, Thanks for stopping by my blog (Suescraftymess). I just posted the cocoa recipe (along with a cookie). I hope you get a chance to try it out. It takes some stirring to get it dissolved, but the taste is great. And it goes great with the cookies on a cold day!!! Thanks again for all the things you share. I became a follower so I won't miss any!
