02 Jan BROCCOLI CHEDDAR SOUP
INGREDIENTS:
Quarter Cup Butter
Quarter Cup Flour
1 chopped onion
2 cups half-and-half
6 cups vegetable stock
3 pounds chopped broccoli
8 ounce bag shredded
carrots
8 ounce bag of shredded
cheddar cheese
DIRECTIONS:
It’s a comfort food on a rainy day and we’ve been
having a lot of those lately. This soup comes together
and is nished in about an hour. It’s easy to make and
delicious. Save this recipe for Shavuot.
In a large stockpot pot make a roux with a quarter cup
butter and a quarter cup our whisk that together
until thickened. Add one chopped onion and let that
cook down for a few minutes. Add 2 cups
half-and-half, 6 cups vegetable stock, 3 pounds
chopped broccoli, 8
ounce bag shredded carrots. Cover and let simmer for
about 40 minutes until broccoli is softened. I used a
spoon to chop the broccoli a little bit more or you can
use an immersion blender if you’d like it smoother- I
like it a little chunky. Add one 8 ounce bag of
shredded cheddar cheese and let simmer another 15
minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Enjoy
with some crusty sourdough bread.
