Notes

  • For a creamier texture, stir in 1/2 cup of evaporated milk during the last 30 minutes of cooking.
  • If you prefer a thicker soup, mix 1 tablespoon of cornstarch with 2 tablespoons of cold water and stir this slurry into the soup during the last 30 minutes of cooking.
  • You can substitute ground turkey or ground sausage for the ground beef.
