6 tablespoons all-purpose flour |
2 cups milk |
1 cup half-and-half |
1 cup chicken broth |
3 cups diced leftover cooked ham |
1 (10 ounce) box frozen peas |
1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese |
1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese |
Directions:
1. Cook spaghetti in boiling salted water as directed on label. Drain, rinse and set aside.
2. Saute onion lightly in the butter in large saucepan.
3. Stir in flour. Off heat, stir in milk, half-and-half and broth.
4. Put back over heat. Cook, stirring, until thickened.
