From All Recipes-serves 6
1-1/4 pounds ground beef
1-1/4 onion, chopped
2-1/2 carrots, shredded
1-1/4 stalks celery, diced
1-1/4 teaspoons dried basil
2 tablespoons and 1-1/4 teaspoons dried parsley
1/4 cup and 2 teaspoons margarine
3-2/3 cups chicken broth
3-2/3 cups hash brown potatoes
1/4 cup and 2 teaspoons all-purpose flour
8 ounces shredded cheddar cheese
1-3/4 cups and 1 tablespoon milk
salt and pepper to taste
1/4 cup and 2 teaspoons sour cream
Directions
In a 3-quart saucepan brown beef. Drain and set aside. In the same saucepan, saute onion, carrots, celery, basil and parsley in 1 tablespoon butter until vegetables are tender, about 5 minutes.
Add broth, potatoes and beef and bring to a boil. Reduce heat, cover and simmer for 5 - 10 minutes or until potatoes are tender.
Meanwhile, in a small skillet melt remaining butter. Add flour and cook and stir for 3-5 minutes or until bubbly. Add to soup. Cook and stir soup for 2 minutes. Reduce heat to low.
Add cheese, milk, salt and pepper and cook and stir until cheese melts. Remove from the heat. Add sour cream. Stir well. Serve immediately.
My changes will be to use real diced potatoes & instead of flour....add instant potato flakes to thicken.Diced pepper or pimento to sprinke on would add color.

Hope you like it. The one time I tasted a similar soup, the hostess passed small bowls of diced green onion in one & fine dice red pepper in the other, with small teaspoons for each guest to top their soup with.Was very good & looked yummy too.

Hi! Everyone wanted the recipe and asked if I would post it in our newsletter. We sew for Threads of Love group, making preemie blankets and other items for the three NICU in our city. Yesterday, we had a Fun Day, learned how to make Turning Twenties quilt blocks.
Adding the green onions and red pepper sound like a great idea! Thanks again, Chris
