1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp dried basil

1 cup heavy cream or milk
2 tbsp cornstarch (optional, for thickening)
How to Make Crockpot Cheeseburger Soup:
1. Brown the Ground Beef:
In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef until fully browned. Drain excess fat and transfer the meat to your slow cooker.
2. Add Veggies and Broth:
To the crockpot, add diced potatoes, carrots, celery, onion, broth, garlic powder, basil, salt, and pepper.
3. Slow Cook Until Tender:
Cover and cook on LOW for 6–7 hours or HIGH for 3–4 hours, until vegetables are fork-tender.
