Recipe

Continue cooking, stirring frequently to make sure nothing burns to the bottom, approximately 12-15 minutes or until the potatoes and carrots begin to soften.
2. Sprinkle flour over the meat and vegetables and stir to coat. Continue to cook for 2 minutes, stirring constantly. Slowly stir in 2 cups of chicken broth, then add 1/2 cup of milk. Stir in the rest of the chicken broth and the remaining milk. Simmer for 15-20 minutes.
3.Slowly add 2 cups of shredded cheddar in small increments, stirring to melt between increments. Salt and pepper to taste. If desired, top with sour cream, a sprinkle of cheddar and chopped green onions.
