BROCCOLI SOUP
1 pound fresh broccoli
1 can (14 ounces) chicken broth
2 tablespoons butter or margarine
2 tablespoons all purpose flour
2 cups milk
2 cups (8 ounces) shredded sharp or mild cheddar chees
Finely chop the broccoli florets and slice stems into thin strips.
In a large soup pot, combine the broccoli and the chicken broth. Bring to boil. Reduce heat, cover, and simmer about 8 minutes, or until broccoli is tender. With a handheld blender, process until smooth.
In another saucepan, melt the butter. Add the flour and stir until smooth. Cook over medium heat until thick and bubbly. Slowly add milk and bring to boil. Add to broccoli puree. Add cheese and stir until melted.
