Broccoli Cheese Soup

Broccoli Cheese Soup

 Mmmmmmm!!! This is my favorite!!!!
Fun and easy to make!!!
Ingredients:

6 TBS of Butter or margerine
1/2 Cup flour
2 cups of 2% milk
2 - 14 oz cans or Chicken broth
1 can of cream of chicken soup
3 cups of shredded cheddar cheese.
2 carrots shredded
1 onion chopped
About 4 cups of broccoli Chopped.

How to make it!!!
 First Chop all veggies; Carrots, broccoli, and onion and put them into large pan. Add one can of chicken broth and cook on medium heat for about 7-10 minutes or until broccoli is tender. DON'T OVER COOK. To make the soup Start with a rue; melt butter or margarine in large pot, add flour and whisk together adding milk in slowly on high heat. This will begin to thicken up. Turn heat down to medium. Add your last can of Chicken broth and your can of cream of chicken soup.  Add in your cheese about 1 cup at at time. Continue to stir soup, do not boil. When cheese has melted all the way add your veggies and remaining chicken broth. Your soup is done. Serve in Bread bowls or a side of bread and butter. Delicious!!!

This recipe I made on my own. I found 2 recipes online and altered them a little bit. You don't have to use the cream of chicken soup if you don't want to just add another can of chicken broth instead. I just like my soup to be a little bit thicker and it adds just a little bit more flavor. You can also add more or less cheese depending on how cheesy you like it. Some people might like more or less veggies too. It's completely up to you. I mostly just eyeball everything . Have fun making this one. And Good Luck!!!

ENJOY!!!
