Preparation
  1. In a large pot, cook the ground beef over medium heat until browned. Drain excess fat.
  2. Add the diced onion and cook until translucent.

Serve hot in bowls. Optionally, add extra cheese on top for flavor. This soup is delicious with crusty bread or a simple salad. Leftovers can be refrigerated for up to 3 days or frozen for up to 3 months.
