Cheeseburger Gnocchi Soup
Cheeseburger Gnocchi Soup is the perfect comfort food to warm you right up on a cold evening! This is an easy and delicious dinner that the entire family can agree on.
Cheeseburger Soup
Cheeseburger soup has been a family favorite since we first tried it at the local diner in Wyoming. I love it for feeding a crowd and I made it even more delicious by adding in potato gnocchi!
I make Italian Gnocchi Soup quite often and lately we can’t get enough of My Mom’s Homemade Chicken and Dumplings. Soup is definitely on the menu every week when the weather is chilly.
How to Make Cheeseburger Gnocchi Soup:
- Brown ground beef in a dutch oven. Season with salt and pepper.
- Remove ground beef to a bowl and set aside.
- Add olive oil, onion, carrots, celery and garlic to the dutch oven cook on low about 8 minutes.
- Stir in ground beef, corn and broth.
- Add cream and cornstarch to a bowl and whisk together and add to soup mixture.
- Add seasonings and Worcestershire sauce, cook for 10 minutes.
- Stir in gnocchi and cook until it starts to float. Add in cheese and mix until melted.
What is Gnocchi?
Gnocchi is a small Italian dumpling often made from potatoes and flour. Find them in your grocery store near the pasta or you might also find them in the refrigerated section or frozen section.
What can you use instead of gnocchi?
If you don’t have gnocchi, you can use macaroni or your favorite pasta that has been cooked and drained. Diced potatoes are also a great addition to this soup.

Tips for Flavorful Soup:
Homemade soup is really simple to make. Almost every soup I make starts with carrots, onion and celery in my Dutch Oven. It adds incredible depth of flavor and is totally worth the step of sautéing the vegetables together. Browning the ground beef until it starts to get crispy also adds a lot of flavor to this soup.
I cut the veggies up pretty small so that they cook quick and because certain picky eaters prefer not to eat vegetables. Imagine that. Soup is a great way to sneak in extra vegetables for those picky eaters, just add in your favorites to this soup.
My guys love cornbread with soup and my easy Skillet Cornbread is also great made into muffins. You just can’t beat this combination for dinner any night of the week.
Dinnertime is a great chance to catch up with your family for the day. I want to make an extra effort to sit at the table this year. We eat dinner in front of the tv most of the time but I do love those times we all gather around the table.
