Ham, Broccoli and Cheddar Soup

From: Here

Ingredients:
  • 1 bunch broccoli, cut (or about 4 cups frozen florets)
  • 1 stick butter
  • small onion, diced
  • 1/2 cup flour
  • 6 cups chicken broth
  • 4 cups milk, warmed
  • 2 tsp. worcestershire sauce
  • 1 cups cheddar, shredded
  • 2 cups diced ham
Steam the broccoli until tender.
In a large pot, melt the butter and cook the onion till soft.  Stir in the flour and cook for a minute or two.  Whisk in the chicken broth.  Add the warm milk and Worcestershire sauce.  Heat over medium heat till the soup is hot.
Drain the broccoli and add to the soup.  Stir in the cheese and ham.  Season with salt and pepper.  Serve with extra cheese, if you like.

Verdict:
Thumbs up! Yummy and easy to throw together. I used a 16oz bag of frozen broccoli. This was a great, filling soup. Unfortunately, no picture! But I definitely recommend this one!
