Equipment

Ingredients
- 0.5 pound lean ground beef
- 0.5 medium onion (finely chopped)
- 2 large carrots (peeled and chopped)
- 1 rib celery (finely chopped)
- 2 cloves garlic (finely minced)
- 1 teaspoon salt

- 1 cup half-and-half
- 3 tablespoons cornstarch
- 1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
Instructions
- In a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat, cook the beef and onion for about 5 minutes, stirring often, until the beef is browned. If there's a lot of excess fat, you can drain some of it.
- Add the carrots and celery and cook about 5 minutes, until slightly softened.
- Stir in the garlic, salt, parsley, mustard, and pepper and cook for 1 minute.
- Add the broth and potatoes. Bring to a simmer then reduce the heat to medium-low, cover and cook for 12 to 15 minutes, until the potatoes and carrots are tender.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the half-and-half and cornstarch and add it to the soup along with the Cheddar.
- Reduce the heat to low and cook, stirring, until thickened, about 2 to 3 minutes.
- Taste and adjust seasonings as desired before serving.
