Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Cook the Ground Beef: In a large pot, over medium heat, add the ground beef. Cook for about 5-7 minutes, breaking it apart with a spoon until it’s nicely browned. Drain any excess fat.
  2. Sauté Aromatics: Add chopped onion and minced garlic to the pot. Sauté for about 3-4 minutes until the onion becomes translucent and fragrant.

  4. Add Cheese: Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese, allowing to melt seamlessly into your soup. Mix until creamy and luscious.
  5. Season and Serve: Taste the soup and season with salt and pepper. Serve hot.
