Directions:
- In a medium-sized cooking pot, add water and broccoli florets and bring to boil; reduce heat and cook for about 3 minutes. Drain, reserving all of the water.
- In a food processor or blender, process half the cooked broccoli until fairly smooth. Chop remaining broccoli and set aside.
- In a heavy-bottomed cooking pot, melt butter or margarine, add onion and celery and cook for about 3 to 4 minutes until soft. Stir in flour; cook, stirring constantly for about 1 to 2 minutes. Add reserved water and chicken bouillon granules, and bring to boil, stirring constantly. Reduce heat to medium; simmer, stirring constantly until thickened.
- Stir in milk, nutmeg, pepper, and processed and chopped broccoli, and heat through. Adjust seasonings to taste. Serve garnished with grated cheddar cheese.
- My adjustment to the recipe - (I used the stalk and the florets, I also used half and half instead of whole milk)
- Tip - if you use the stalk, make sure you peel the stalk with a potato peeler.
