Cooking Steps
  1. In a large pot over medium heat, brown the ground beef until fully cooked. Drain excess fat if necessary.
  2. Add the diced onion and minced garlic to the pot. Sauté for about 2-3 minutes until the onion is translucent.
  3. Stir in the diced potatoes, carrots, and chopped celery. Cook for another 5 minutes.
  4. Add the beef broth and Worcestershire sauce. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and let simmer for about 15 minutes or until the vegetables are tender.
  5. Slowly stir in the heavy cream and shredded cheddar cheese, allowing them to melt completely and create a creamy texture.
  6. Taste and season with salt and pepper as needed.
  7. Ladle the soup into bowls and top with extra cheddar cheese and fresh parsley. Enjoy!

Notes

Substitutions: Replace ground beef with ground chicken or turkey for a lighter version. For a vegetarian option, try using plant-based meat or lentils. If in a hurry, you can use pre-prepped diced vegetables. Ensure you stir the soup occasionally to avoid sticking, and add more broth or cream if it gets too thick. Leftovers can be refrigerated for up to 3-4 days or frozen for 2-3 months.
