Creamy Potato & Hamburger Soup

When I informed Mike that I was going to make this Creamy Potato & Hamburger Soup, he genuinely scoffed. He sincerely believes that he dislikes hamburger in soups. He claims he doesn’t like ground beef every time I mention adding it to a soup. Additionally, he like any soup I cook that contains ground beef.

Seriously. The man has a mental impediment regarding it. I love hamburger soup, am I right? Try my mushroom cube steak in the crockpot as well if you enjoy this!
