It has been chilly and windy here all week. The kids come off the school bus COLD and want something warm to fill them up. They love this Cheesy Broccoli & Potato Chowder, served with hot rolls they eat it right up. I love that it can be ready and on the table in 30 minutes start to finish. Plus it is full of fresh vegetables, for a healthy meal for my family.
Cheesy Broccoli & Potato Chowder ~ quick and easy DONE in 30 minutes
You will need
- 1 Cup Diced Onion
- 1 Cup Diced Celery
- 1 Cup Diced Carrots
- 3 Cups Chopped Broccoli (raw)
- 3 Cups Diced Potatoes peeled
- 2 Tablespoon Parsley
- 5 Cups Chicken Broth
- 2 Cups Water
Add at end of cooking you will also need
- 1 pound diced Velveeta cheese
- 1 1/2 cups grated cheddar cheese
- 3 tablespoons flour
- 1 1/2 cups Milk
Place in a large pot on the stove top. Add all the vegetables and bullion cubes. Cover with water and broth, simmer until vegetables are tender, normally takes 20-25 minutes. Once veggies are tender, take half of the vegetables out, put them in a blender and puree them. Or you could use an emerson blender. You do not have to do this part but it helps make the soup more creamy.
Next step is to add milk flour mixture below.
- Blend 1 1/2 cup milk with 3 Tablespoons Flour whisk till all lumps are gone, then stir into veggies.
- Stir until well blended, add 1 pound diced Velveeta cheese, and shredded cheddar cheese stir until melted and well blended.
Take off heat, salt and pepper to taste. Enjoy!
