Oh So Good Broccoli Cheese Soup

Oh So Good Broccoli Cheese Soup

1 - 16 oz bag frozen broccoli 

florets

4 cups chicken stock

1 small yellow onion, chopped

6 tablespoons margarine

1/2 cup all-purpose flour

2 cups whole milk

1 - 12 oz block Velveeta, cubed

2 cups grated cheddar cheese (I use mild but you can use sharp)

Ground white pepper

In a large saucepan, boil the broccoli in the chicken stock for about 15 minutes. 

In a large deep skillet, sauté the onions in the margarine until soft, about 10 minutes. 

Add the flour and mix to form a thick paste. Gradually add in the milk, stirring until combined and thickened. Add mixture to the broccoli mixture. Stir to combine. Lower heat and add the Velveeta, stirring until melted, being careful not to let the soup boil. Add the shredded cheddar cheese. Stir until blended. Season with the ground white pepper. 

Serve hot........with garlic bread...yummy!
