Description
A creamy and cheesy delight that combines ground beef, tender potatoes, and melted cheddar cheese, perfect for warm family gatherings.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb ground beef
- 4 medium potatoes, peeled and diced
- 1 onion, chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 4 cups chicken broth
- 1 cup milk
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 2 tablespoons butter
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Optional toppings: green onions, sour cream, croutons
Instructions
- In a large pot over medium heat, melt butter. Add chopped onion and minced garlic, sautéing until soft and fragrant, about 4-5 minutes.
- Push onion and garlic to the sides of the pot, add ground beef, and cook until browned, about 6-8 minutes. Season lightly with salt and pepper.

- Taste and adjust seasoning with more salt and pepper if necessary. Serve hot, garnished with green onions or sour cream if desired.
