Beefy Velveeta Cheese Soup is a rich, creamy, and hearty dish featuring ground beef, tender vegetables, and melty Velveeta cheese. Perfect for quick dinners, game days, or cold-weather comfort meals.

Ingredients

  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 1 lb Velveeta cheese, cubed
  • 1 medium onion, chopped
  • 2 celery stalks, chopped
  • 2 carrots, chopped
  • 2 medium potatoes, diced
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 4 cups beef broth
  • 1 cup milk
  • 2 tbsp butter or oil
  • 2 tbsp all-purpose flour
  • Salt, to taste
  • Black pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. In a large soup pot, brown the ground beef over medium heat. Drain excess fat and set aside.
  2. In the same pot, heat butter or oil. Add onion, celery, carrots, and garlic; sauté for 5-7 minutes until softened.
  3. Stir in flour and cook for 1-2 minutes to form a roux.
  4. Gradually add beef broth, stirring constantly to avoid lumps.
  5. Add diced potatoes and bring to a simmer. Cook for 15-20 minutes until potatoes are tender.
  6. Return cooked beef to the pot and stir to combine.
  7. Reduce heat and add Velveeta cheese. Stir until fully melted and smooth.
  8. Pour in milk and heat through gently without boiling.
  9. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve hot.

Notes

  • Add bacon for extra flavor.
  • Use green chilies or hot sauce for heat.
  • Substitute ground turkey or chicken for a leaner soup.
  • Mix in frozen peas or corn during the last 10 minutes.
  • Try spicy Velveeta for a kick.
