Cheesy Vegetable Soup

Submitted by Julie Twitchell

I got this recipe from Kirsten South, who use to live in our ward. She made this for a Super Saturday 2 years ago and it was the first soup gone. We are having this for dinner with the yummy french bread recipe Barbara Barrow submitted.

1/4 Cup butter
1/4 Cup flour
2 -3 Cups milk
1 cup cheese
3-5 potatoes peeled and cubed
1 onion
whatever other veggies you want

  • Put 4 cups of water in a large saucepan. Boil the potatoes, onion and other veggies(I used broccoli, cauliflower and carrots) for 15 minutes.
  • In another saucepan, melt butter and add flour. It will be light brown. Don't overcook the mixture.
  • Slowly add milk. Make sure it is the thickness you want(if it is too thick, just add more milk).
  • Then add the cheese.
  • When the veggies are fork tender, drain and add veggies to the milk/cheese mixture. Heat through and serve.
  • I puree mine so my kids would eat the vegetables. Okay so really Nathan and Chelsee are the only kids that will eat it.
