Jump to Recipe

Craving a comforting bowl of goodness? This cheeseburger soup combines all the flavors of a classic cheeseburger into a creamy, savory delight. Perfect for chilly evenings, it’s a fun twist on traditional soup recipes that everyone will love.

Imagine digging into a bowl of this cheesy, beefy goodness, where each spoonful takes you back to summer barbecues. With hearty ingredients and rich flavor, this cheeseburger soup is not just another burger soup recipe; it’s an experience that will leave you satisfied and wanting more.

Comfort in a Bowl

A steaming bowl of creamy cheeseburger soup is a warm embrace on a chilly day. The combination of ground beef and tender potatoes brings a sense of heartiness that makes this dish a favorite among many. Each spoonful is filled with gooey melted cheddar cheese, creating a rich and satisfying experience.

This soup seamlessly merges the familiar flavors of a classic cheeseburger with the comforting qualities of a warm bowl of soup. It’s a delightful twist that’s perfect for those evenings when you crave something both hearty and indulgent. The addition of green onions adds a pop of color and a mild oniony crunch that elevates each bite.

Ingredients That Shine

The primary elements of this soup work together beautifully. Ground beef is the star ingredient, providing a robust and savory base. Diced potatoes offer substance, while the shredded cheddar cheese brings the creaminess that everyone loves.

Each ingredient plays a role in crafting the perfect bowl of cheeseburger soup. The simple yet effective seasoning with Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper enhances the flavors, ensuring that every mouthful is delicious. Instant Pot recipes often make cooking easier, and this cheeseburger soup is no exception, allowing for a quick preparation time while maintaining rich flavors.

Preparation Made Easy

Making cheeseburger soup can be straightforward, especially when using an Instant Pot. Quick browning of the ground beef followed by sautéing the onions and garlic sets a flavorful foundation. Adding the diced potatoes and broth gives the soup its heartiness, while sealing the pot allows for efficient cooking.

Once the soup is cooked, stirring in milk and melted cheddar cheese transforms it into a creamy delight. This process keeps the flavors intact while allowing the ingredients to meld together harmoniously. It’s a perfect example of how burger soup recipes can offer a delightful alternative to traditional soups while being quick and easy to prepare.

The Ultimate Cheeseburger Soup Recipe

This cheeseburger soup is a rich and creamy dish featuring ground beef, tender potatoes, and a delightful blend of seasonings. It’s the perfect way to enjoy burger flavors in a soup form, making it a unique addition to your list of burger soup recipes.

Cook and Prep Times

  • Prep Time: 10 minutes
  • Cook Time: 20 minutes
  • Total Time: 30 minutes

Ingredients

  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1 medium onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 4 medium potatoes, diced
  • 4 cups beef broth
  • 1 cup milk
  • 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Chopped green onions for garnish

Instructions

To begin, heat a large pot or Instant Pot over medium heat and add the ground beef. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the beef is fully browned and no longer pink. Once cooked through, carefully drain any excess fat to prevent the dish from becoming too greasy.

Next, add the chopped onion and minced garlic to the pot, stirring well to combine with the beef. Sauté for a few minutes until the onions become soft and translucent, and the garlic releases its fragrant aroma. This step helps build a rich, flavorful base for the goulash.

Once the vegetables are softened, stir in the diced potatoes, followed by the beef broth and Worcestershire sauce. Mix everything well, ensuring the potatoes are evenly distributed and submerged in the broth. If using an Instant Pot, secure the lid, set it to high pressure, and cook for about 10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld and the potatoes to become tender.

After the cooking time is complete, carefully release the pressure if using an Instant Pot, then switch to sauté mode. Stir in the milk and shredded cheddar cheese, mixing continuously until the cheese is fully melted and the soup becomes smooth and creamy. This step adds a rich, comforting texture to the dish.

Taste and adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper as needed. Ladle the soup into serving bowls and garnish with freshly chopped green onions for a pop of color and extra flavor. Serve hot and enjoy this hearty, cheesy burger-inspired goulash!

The Perfect Pairing

No bowl of cheeseburger soup is complete without a slice of crusty bread nearby. The inviting texture of the bread is perfect for dipping into the rich, cheesy soup. This pairing not only enhances the flavors but also adds a delightful crunch to complement the creamy broth.

Serving the soup garnished with chopped green onions adds visual appeal, making it not just a meal but also a feast for the eyes. The rustic wooden spoon resting beside the bowl invites you to savor every last drop of this comforting dish.

A Meal for Any Occasion

This cheeseburger soup is versatile enough to be served on casual weeknights or as a comforting dish for gatherings. It brings a sense of nostalgia, reminiscent of backyard barbecues but in a cozy soup form. Whether you’re a fan of burger flavors or simply looking for a satisfying meal, this dish caters to all tastes.

With easy-to-follow steps and accessible ingredients, this recipe fits well into anyone’s cooking repertoire. It’s a great way to introduce friends and family to the joys of creative soup recipes, ensuring that everyone leaves the table happy and full.

Nourishing and Satisfying

Each bowl of creamy cheeseburger soup not only tastes fantastic but is also nourishing. With a balance of protein from the ground beef and carbohydrates from the potatoes, it serves as a complete meal in itself. The comforting texture and delicious flavor profile make it a standout choice for those chilly evenings.

As you savor your bowl of soup, you may find that it becomes a staple in your meal planning, offering both comfort and satisfaction. The combination of ingredients ensures that every serving is packed with flavor, making this dish a must-try for anyone who enjoys a hearty and creamy soup experience.
