Number Of Ingredients 11

Ingredients

1 c celery; sliced
1 c onion; chopped
2 Tbsp margarine
2/3 c flour; unsifted
4 c water
2 Tbsp instant bouillon-chicken flavor or 6 chicken flavor bouillon cubes
1/4 tsp pepper
2 c frozen broccoli, cauliflower and carrot combo
1 c frozen hash brown potatoes
3 c milk or half and half
2 1/2 c cheddar cheese; shredded

Steps:

1. In large kettle or dutch oven, cook celery and onion in margarine until tender. Stir in flour until smooth. Gradually add water then bouillon, pepper and vegetables; bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 15 minutes.
2. Add milk and cheese. Cook and stir until cheese melts and soup is hot (do not boil). Garnish as desired. Refrigerate leftovers.

Tips:

Use a good quality vegetable broth for the best flavor. You can use store-bought or homemade broth.
If you don't have any fresh herbs on hand, you can use dried herbs instead. Just be sure to use about 1/3 of the amount of dried herbs as you would fresh herbs.
To make the soup creamier, you can add a cup of heavy cream or milk. Stir it in just before serving.
If you want a thicker soup, you can add a cornstarch slurry. To make a cornstarch slurry, whisk together 1 tablespoon of cornstarch and 1 tablespoon of cold water. Stir the slurry into the soup and bring it to a simmer. Cook for 1-2 minutes, or until the soup has thickened to your desired consistency.
Serve the soup with a side of crusty bread or crackers for dipping.

Conclusion:

Garden cheese soup is a delicious and easy-to-make soup that is perfect for a quick and healthy meal. It is packed with fresh vegetables and herbs, and the cheese adds a creamy and flavorful touch. This soup is sure to become a family favorite!
