Ingredients

45 mins
6 servings
  1. 2 smallonions
  2. 2 headof broccoli chopped into small pieces
  3. 4 clovegarlic crushed
  4. 2Carrots chopped into small pieces
  5. 1Oil or butter (enough to saute veggies)
  6. 4 cupWarm milk
  7. 1/3 cupFlour
  8. 1/3 cupButter
  9. 3 cupShredded cheese (I like sharp cheddar)
  10. 4 cupChicken stock
  11. 1as needed Salt/pepper

Cooking Instructions

45 mins
  1. 1

    Add onions, garlic and carrots and saute until tender. Then add broccoli and saute for another minute. Add your chicken stock and cover pot and boil for about 10mins (until broccoli is tender) - this is also a good time to warm your milk

  2. 2

    In another pot melt butter and add flour to make a roux. Cook for about 2mins then add warm milk and whisk until mixture thickens. Add your salt and pepper

  3. 3

    As soon as the roux thickens add the mixture to your veggies and stir. Add your shredded cheese. I also add salt and pepper at this time if needed

  4. 4

    Sometimes my soup is still a bit loose then what I would like so I make a mixture of flour and cold water and add to the soup to thicken up. Or you can keep it as is

  5. 5

    Keep the pot on low and let simmer for about 15-20 mins.

    Enjoy:)
