Ingredients
- 1 pound lean ground beef
- 1 medium onion diced
- 3 cloves garlic minced
- 1 pound Russet potatoes peeled and diced into 1/2-inch cubes
- 2 cups beef broth
- 1 can 14.5 ounces diced tomatoes, undrained
- 1 can 10.5 ounces condensed cheddar cheese soup
- 1 cup milk
- 1 teaspoon dried basil
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- Chopped fresh parsley or chives for garnish
Instructions
- In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef until browned and cooked through, breaking it up with a spatula as it cooks. Drain any excess fat.
- Transfer the cooked ground beef to a 6-quart slow cooker.
- Add the diced onion, minced garlic, diced potatoes, beef broth, diced tomatoes, condensed cheddar cheese soup, milk, basil, oregano, salt, and pepper to the slow cooker. Stir to combine.
- Cover the slow cooker and cook on low heat for 6-8 hours, or on high heat for 3-4 hours, until the potatoes are tender.
- During the last 30 minutes of cooking, stir in the shredded cheddar cheese and heavy cream. Cover and continue cooking until the cheese is melted and the soup is heated through.
- Garnished with chopped fresh parsley or chives, if desired.

Notes
- Russet potatoes work well in this recipe because they hold their shape and become tender during the long cooking process. However, you can use other types of potatoes, such as red or Yukon gold, if desired.
- If you prefer a thicker soup, you can mash some of the potatoes with a potato masher or immersion blender before adding the corn, cheese, and cream.
- Refrigerate the leftovers in an airtight container for up to 5-6 days.
