Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the minced meat and chopped onions and cook until the onions are soft and the minced meat is browned. Be sure to drain off any excess fat.

In a separate bowl, mix the cornstarch and milk well. Pour this mixture into the soup and stir well.Add the diced Velveeta cheese, stirring occasionally as it melds into the soup. Once the cheese is fully melted and well incorporated, your hearty, creamy ground beef and potato soup is ready to serve.
