Hamburger Potato Soup

I am posting this recipe because BooMama is having a soup exchange and I LOVE soup. I was only going to look and not particpate, but I don't see this recipe there and since it is SO good I thought I would share :). I got it from a message board somewhere from someone named Diane--that is all I remember. It is SO GOOD and easy!!!! We just had it a few days ago.

Hamburger Potato Soup

-1 pound hamburger
-1 large onion, diced
-5 large potatoes- chopped, diced, whatever (I use alot and don't count them!)
-2 carrots, chopped ( I use baby carrots, several)
-2 stalks celery, chopped (I use one or L would freak out)
-1 pkg lipton onion soup mix

In large pot, brown hamburger and onion; drain. Add potatoes, celery, carrots, and onion soup mix. Add just enough water to cover. Cover and simmer until veggies are tender.

Sauce: melt and mix until bubbly: 4 TBS butter, 4 TBS flour. Add 2 cups of milk and cook until thick. Pour sauce into meat and veggies. Add salt and pepper to taste. Simmer until well blended.

Seriously, I have given this recipe to everyone who has tasted it. They all love it. It is one of my favorites. Taco soup is another fave but there a LOTS of people who posted that one.

Enjoy!!
