I usually get a strange look when I mention macaroni and cheese soup, but after tasting it most everyone loves it. Cheese lovers rejoice! This recipe comes from my work's cafeteria.
Ingredients:
6 ounces butter
4 ounces minced onions
1 teaspoon minced garlic
20 ounces chicken broth
1/4 cup minced celery
1/4 cup minced carrot
4 cups hot milk
24 ounces velveeta cheese
16 ounces cooked elbow macaroni
salt and pepper
flour (for making roux)
Directions:
1. Melt butter in a large kettle and clarify onion and garlic. Blend in flour to make a roux ( 1/4 cup) cook for about 5 minutes, but don't brown.
2. Soften celery and carrot in boiling chicken stock, and gradually add stock to the flour mixture. Follow with milk and cheese; season with salt and pepper.
3. Mix in macaroni and adjust the thickness with additional milk.
