Brown the beef: In a skillet, cook ground beef over medium heat until browned. Drain excess grease, then add to your slow cooker.
Add veggies and liquids: To the slow cooker, add potatoes, carrots, celery, onion, garlic, and corn. Pour in the broth, then stir in cream of mushroom soup, salt, pepper, and herbs.
Cook low and slow: Cover and cook on LOW for 6–8 hours or HIGH for 3–4 hours, until the vegetables are tender.
Make it creamy: Stir in the milk and cheddar cheese about 30 minutes before serving. Mix well until melted and creamy.
Serve & enjoy: Ladle into bowls and serve warm with buttery biscuits, cornbread, or crusty bread. 🥖
🍽️ Tips & Variations
Add ham or bacon bits for extra smoky flavor.
Use cream of chicken soup instead of mushroom for a lighter version.
Stir in a handful of frozen peas or green beans near the end for more color.
For a thicker texture, mash a few potatoes in the pot just before serving.
