Sastojci

1/4 cup melted butter

1/2 medium chopped onion

1/4 cup flour

2 cups half-and-half cream

2 cups low-sodium chicken stock or broth

1/2 lb broccoli (about 3 cups, chopped into bite size pieces)

1/4 teaspoon nutmeg (optional but brings out the flavor)

8 ounces grated sharp cheddar cheese (2 cups)

salt and pepper

Upute

Melt the 1/4 cup butter and sautee the onions in it until soft. Sprinkle the flour over the mixture. Cook and stir over medium heat for 1-2 minutes.

Whisk in the half & half and chicken stock.

Add the broccoli and carrots. Cook over low heat for 20-25 minutes or until the broccoli and carrots are tender.

Add salt and pepper. You can leave the soup chunky or blend about 1 cup of the soup and stir it in for a smoother soup (that's what I do). Return to low heat and add the cheese. If your heat is too high your soup can get grainy. Stir in the nutmeg if desired.

Serve with crusty bread.
