A hearty and comforting soup that combines the rich flavors of a cheeseburger with the creamy satisfaction of macaroni and cheese, all in one pot! This easy-to-make dish is perfect for busy weeknights and customizable with your favorite burger toppings.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1 medium onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 (14.5-ounce) can diced tomatoes, undrained
  • 4 cups beef broth
  • 2 cups elbow macaroni
  • 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions

  • Brown the Beef & Sauté the Onion:
    In a large pot or Dutch oven, cook the ground beef over medium-high heat, breaking it apart as it cooks. When the beef is halfway browned, add the chopped onion and minced garlic. Cook until the onion is translucent and the beef is fully browned. Drain excess grease if necessary.
  • Add Tomatoes, Broth, and Pasta:
    Stir in the diced tomatoes (with their juices) and beef broth. Bring to a gentle boil. Add the elbow macaroni and stir to combine. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer for 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the pasta is tender.
  • Stir in the Cheese:
    Turn off the heat and stir in the shredded cheddar cheese. Mix until the cheese melts completely and the soup is creamy. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Serve & Enjoy:
    Ladle the hot soup into bowls and top with your favorite burger-inspired toppings such as diced pickles, ketchup, or mustard. Serve immediately and enjoy!

Notes

  • For a smoky flavor, try adding a teaspoon of smoked paprika or a splash of Worcestershire sauce.
  • Use gluten-free pasta and broth to make this dish gluten-free.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently on the stovetop, adding a splash of broth if needed to adjust consistency.
