my friend Shan


Recipe Introduction

I have made this several times. This is good and easy.

List of Ingredients

2 cups diced potatoes
1/2 cup sliced carrots
1/2 cup sliced celery
1/4 cup diced onions
1 tsp salt
10 oz. grated sharp cheddar
2 cups water
1/4 cup butter
1/4 cup flour
2 cups milk
pepper to taste
2 cups creamed corn


Recipe

Cook potatoes, carrots, celery and onions in the boiling salted water for 10 minutes.

While vegetables cook, melt butter, stir in the flour and pepper and cook for 1 minute.

Gradually stir in milk, cook, stirring constantly until thickened.

Add cheese stirring until melted.

Stir in corn and heat through, do not boil.

Add vegetables with cooking liquid and stir together.

Shan's notes: I like to add a little hot sauce or cayenne pepper to my serving, but leave the rest of the soup as is for the kids.
