This one-pot cheeseburger rice soup is creamy, flavorful, and so so tasty. It's kind of like Hamburger Helper but in soup form and without all of the crap. I used rice instead of a roux to create a thick base, so it is flourless and totally gluten-free. Best of all, it only takes a little over half an hour to make, so it's perfect for a lazy weeknight in.
