Ingredients

  • 6 medium potatoes, peeled and cubed
  • 1 small carrot, grated
  • 1 small onion, chopped
  • 1/2 cup chopped green pepper
  • 2 tablespoons chopped seeded jalapeno pepper
  • 3 cups water
  • 2 tablespoons plus 2 teaspoons beef bouillon granules
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced

Directions

  • In a Dutch oven, combine the first nine ingredients; bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 10-15 minutes or until potatoes are tender.
  • Meanwhile, in a large skillet, cook beef and mushrooms in butter over medium heat until meat is no longer pink; drain. Add to soup. Stir in 4 cups milk; heat through.
  • In a small bowl, combine flour and remaining milk until smooth; gradually stir into soup. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened. Reduce heat; stir in cheese until melted. Garnish with bacon. Yield: 14 servings (about 3-1/2 quarts).

I think this soup would be good make with chicken or even sausage. I love the thickness of it. It is so creamy and rich with flavor

I just finished making this soup and I believe it has potential. I did follow the recipe, however for my personal preference this soup needs more flavor. The beef flavor, and Velveeta are not enough to increase the saltiness Perhaps just simply seasoning the ground beef while cooking will be enough. I am going to make this again and experiment.

Made this for lunch with a long-time friend & she is still talking about it. I omitted the mushrooms and used Tabasco in place of the jalapenos. Definitely a keeper.
