Easy Cheeseburger Soup.

Ingredients
1⁄2 pound ground beef
4 tablespoons butter, divided
3⁄4 cup carrots, diced
3⁄4 cup celery, diced
3⁄4 cup onion, diced
1 teaspoon dried basil
1 teaspoon dried parsley
4 cups potatoes, diced
3 cups chicken broth
1⁄4 cup all-purpose flour
1 to 2 cups Velveeta, cubed
1 1⁄2 cups whole milk
3⁄4 teaspoon salt
1⁄4 to 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1⁄4 cup sour cream
Onion rings, green onions, and crumbled bacon for toppings (optional)

Instructions
In a large pot or Dutch oven, add the ground beef. Cook and crumble it for 6 to 8 minutes until no longer pink. Drain and set it aside.
Melt 1 tablespoon of butter in the same pot. Add the carrots, celery, onions, dried basil, and dried parsley. Stir and saute for about 10 minutes. The vegetables should be tender.
Add the potatoes, ground beef, and chicken broth to the pot. Bring the soup to a boil, reduce the heat, and cover it with a lid. Simmer until the potatoes are tenderβ€”about 10 to 12 minutes.
In a separate small pan, melt 3 tablespoons of butter on medium-low heat. Add the flour and stir continuously for about 3 to 5 minutes. The mixture should start to bubble. Stir it into the soup and bring the soup to a boil. Cook for 2 minutes.
Reduce the heat to low. Stir in the Velveeta cheese, whole milk, salt, and black pepper. Once the cheese melts, remove the pot from the heat. Stir in the sour cream.
Top the soup with onion rings, green onions, and bacon if desired. Serve it warm and enjoy
