Ingredients
  

1 pound ground beef (or turkey for a lighter option)

4 large russet potatoes, peeled and diced

1 medium onion, chopped

3 cloves garlic, minced

4 cups beef broth (or vegetable broth for a lighter version)

1 cup carrots, diced

1 cup celery, diced

1 teaspoon Italian seasoning

½ teaspoon paprika

Salt and pepper to taste

2 cups heavy cream (or half-and-half for a lighter soup)

1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

Fresh parsley, chopped, for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

Brown the Meat: In a skillet over medium heat, brown the ground beef along with the chopped onion and minced garlic until the meat is no longer pink. Drain any excess fat and transfer the mixture to the crockpot.

    Add the Vegetables: To the crockpot, add the diced potatoes, carrots, and celery. Pour in the beef broth and stir to combine.

      Seasoning: Sprinkle in the Italian seasoning, paprika, salt, and pepper. Mix everything well.

        Cook: Cover the crockpot and cook on low for 6–8 hours or on high for 4–6 hours. Stir occasionally to ensure even cooking.

          Finish with Cream: About 30 minutes before serving, stir in the heavy cream and shredded cheddar cheese. Allow the soup to heat through until the cheese is melted and well incorporated.

            Serve: Ladle the creamy potato and hamburger soup into bowls and garnish with fresh parsley, if desired. Enjoy with crusty bread or crackers!
