I received the recipe for this comforting soup from my mom, and my family requests it often, says Janice Russell of Kingfisher, Oklahoma. It's especially good with crusty French bread.
Ingredients:
3 cups fresh broccoli florets
3 cups fresh cauliflowerets
3 celery ribs, sliced
1 small onion, chopped
2 cups water
1/2 teaspoon celery salt
3 tablespoons butter
3 tablespoons king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour
2-1/3 cups whole milk
1 pound process cheese (velveeta), cubed
Directions:
1. In a large saucepan, combine the first six ingredients. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 12-15 minutes or until vegetables are tender.
2. Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, melt butter; stir in flour until smooth. Gradually stir in milk. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened. Reduce heat; add cheese. Cook and stir until cheese is melted. Drain vegetables; add cheese sauce and heat through. Yield: 4-6 servings.
