I woke up this morning to -27°C weather. Brrrr. I know I lament about the heat and humidity in summer, but right now, I’m sure missing it. Spring can’t come soon enough. I’m wrapped up in blankets on the couch trying to stay warm. As for food, I’m looking for comfort food meals to warm my bones. I made this Cheeseburger Chowder and it hits the spot on a chilly day.
Cheeseburger Chowder
It’s hearty and filling plus it’s fairly simple to throw together. It smelled so good as it was simmering on the stove. I couldn’t wait to fill up a big bowl and chow down on it.
All the cheesy, creamy ingredients are added at the end. If you like it extra cheesy, add in more Velveeta cheese.
One serving was enough for me because it has so much going on. It’s very filling which is exactly the kind of recipe I love in this kind of weather. Serve it with some crusty rolls for dipping if you like.
How to Make Cheeseburger Chowder
The first task is to melt the butter in a large pot over medium high heat. Add in the onions, carrots and celery. Sauté for 8 to 10 minutes until the vegetables are softened.
Add water, potatoes, chicken noodle soup mix, garlic powder, chicken bouillon, ground beef and pepper. Stir. Bring to a boil and then reduce heat to medium low. Cover and simmer for 30 minutes.
Remove the pot from the heat. Stir in Velveeta cheese, milk and sour cream. Garnish with parsley, if desired.

That would for sure warm up my bones. It looks delicious and I can’t believe how cold it is over there and we’re having a heat wave here in South Africa. I’ll try and blow some of that your way Stacie
