Terra Americana

Hamburgs are as all American as apple pie.  An undemanding meal,  they hit the spot without taking much of the cooks time.  Cheeseburgers are the superlative evolution of the hamburg. They add  decadence to a simple indulgence.   It might get boring if we were to eat a hamburg or cheeseburger every day.  Here is a quick and easy twist to a classic meal; Cheeseburg chowder.

• 1  lb  lean ground beef , try the grass fed fare from Austin Brothers in Belchertown
• 1/2 cup chopped onions
• 2 cups grated American cheese (or cheddar or Sweet Pea goat cheese if you prefer)
• 2 cups potatoes, cubed (Red Fire Farm potatoes are amazing)
• 2 tsp Aussie Outback Rub
• 4 cups milk (I use Silk original soy milk)
• 1/2 cup chopped stewed tomoatoes (optional)
