Saute the onions and carrots in butter. This can be in your soup pot to save dishes!
Once they are starting to soften, add the potatoes and the meat. Let them get all nice and cozy together for 5-10 minutes, then add the broth and the rest of the ingredients, except the cheese.
Simmer until potatoes are fully cooked and soup is nicely thickened. Just before serving, stir in cheese. Pairs beautifully with a side Caesar!
