Healthy Cheeseburger Soup

A Minnesota potluck favorite! This chunky soup is packed with all the flavors we have come to love in a cheeseburger! Double the recipe if you are cooking for the family, and enjoy with a thick slice of grain-free bread. I recommend a lean ground beef, like what I used for this recipe.

Equipment

• Stainless Steel Wok
• Raw Sharp Cheddar Cheese
• Arrowroot Powder
• Kettle & Fire Bone Broth
• Kerrygold Pure Irish Butter

Ingredients

  

• 0.7 oz unsalted grass-fed butter
• 10.6 oz lean ground beef
• ½ onion peeled and finely sliced
• 1 celery stalk trimmed and diced small
• 1 small carrot peeled and finely sliced
• ½ tsp dried mixed herbs
• 2 cups warm chicken broth
• 1 tsp arrowroot powder
• 5.3 oz cheddar cheese grated
• 2 TB sour cream
• Fresh herbs of your choice chopped to garnish

Instructions

 

• Have all your ingredients prepped and ready.
  
  
• Melt half the butter in a large pan or wok and fry the ground beef over high heat until browned. Use a slotted spoon to remove the beef and set aside, leaving the fat and juices in the pan.   
• Add the remaining butter to the pan and add the onion, celery, and carrot. Fry over moderate heat until the vegetables soften and start to caramelize.
  
  
• Return the beef to the pan and add the dried herbs and the chicken broth, reserving a few tablespoons of the broth in a small bowl. Bring the mixture to a light simmer for approximately 5 minutes until the soup reduces slightly.
  
  
• In the meantime, dissolve the arrowroot powder in the little bowl of stock set aside. Add this to the pan, stirring well to combine.
  
  
• Add the grated cheese (reserving a little for garnish) and stir well until completely melted and the soup reduces further and thickens.
  
  
• Divide the mixture between two warm bowls and garnish with a dollop of sour cream, the remaining grated cheese, and any chopped herbs of your choice.

Hi, my name is Kate.

I love food. Real food. We eat all of the things that nursing school taught me were bad for you: butter, eggs, bacon, and raw milk.

I am a Nurse, a Mom, and a Real Food loving blogger. Just trying to save the world.
