We saw a version of this on Diners, Drive-ins, and Dives, and thought we'd try our hand at our own version of what we'd seen.

How To Make cheeseburger & fries soup

  • 1
    Saute the onion in the butter.
  • 2
    When translucent, add the ground beef. Cook until completely browned.
  • 3
    Add the potato and heat through.

    Deglaze the pan with the bottle of beer, and then simmer the meat mixture for about 5 mins.
  • 5
    Add the milk until bubbly, then add the Cheese Wiz, and melt it in.

    On the show, they added cut up lettuce and tomato, but my family liked it better without those items. The tomato was fine, but the lettuce can make it bitter.
