Cheddar Vegetable Soup



Lots of veggies. Cheese. YUM.

4 Servings

1 stick   Butter
1/2   Large Yellow Onion, chopped
5   Garlic Cloves, minced
3 1/2 cups   Chicken Broth
1/4 cup   Flour
1 cup   Broccoli,  chopped  
1 cup   Cauliflower,  chopped  
1 cup   Red Potatoes, cubed
1 cup   Carrots,  sliced  
1 cup   Zucchini,  sliced 
1 cup   Squash,  sliced  
2 cups   Heavy Cream
3 1/2 cups    Shredded Cheddar Cheese
1)   In a large pot melt the butter and sauté onions and garlic until tender.
2)   Add chicken broth and bring to a boil.
3)   Measure out the flour in a separate bowl and add some of the warm broth, whisking together.
4)   Slowly add the flour mix to the rest of the broth.
5)   Add the broccoli, cauliflower, potatoes, carrots, zucchini, and squash to the pot. The broth will not completely cover the veggies so cover and cook until tender. 
6)   Add the cream and the cheese. Stir until the cheese is melted. Don’t let the soup come to a boil because the cheese may burn. Enjoy!
