List of Ingredients




2 tablespoons butter
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
4 cups lowfat milk
3/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon dry mustard
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 package (10 oz.) frozen chopped broccoli, thawed, drained
1/2 cup finely chopped red bell pepper
6 ounces sharp or extra sharp Cheddar cheese, shredded
2 tablespoons chopped chives or green onion tops



Recipe



1. Melt butter in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add flour; cook
and stir 30 seconds or until bubbly. Add milk, salt, mustard and
cayenne pepper; bring to a simmer over high heat, stirring
frequently. Add broccoli and red pepper; return to a boil. Reduce
heat to low; simmer uncovered 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.

boil). Ladle into four soup bowls; top with chives.

Cheddarcheese.
