the Soup in the Crockpot
- Add the diced potatoes, cooked ground beef mixture, and beef broth to the crockpot. Stir to combine all ingredients evenly.
- Season with salt, black pepper, and optional paprika.
- Cover and cook on low for 6–8 hours or on high for 3–4 hours, until the potatoes are tender and fully cooked.
H2: Making It Creamy
- About 30 minutes before serving, stir in the heavy cream or half-and-half to give the soup a rich and velvety texture.
- Add shredded cheddar cheese, stirring until melted and fully incorporated.
