Another one from my mother-in-law, and of course, it is the best!
Broccoli Cheese Soup2 Tbsp. butter
3/4 cup chopped onion
Cook in large pot until onions are tender and clear.
Add:
6 cups water
6 chicken bouillon cubes
Heat to boil and add:
12 oz. twisty noodles
1 tsp. salt
Cook for a few minutes, then add:
broccoli (my mother-in-law uses two 10 oz. pkgs. of frozen broccoli and I use a head or two of fresh broccol--only the florets)
1 tsp. garlic powder
Cook 5 minutes with lid on pot, then add:
6 cups whole milk (I have used skim and others before, but whole is best)
2 lbs. Velveeta cheese, cubed
Cook until melted, stirring frequently. Add a teaspoon (or less, if you prefer) of pepper (white or black).
Serve hot with bread or rolls (
orange rolls are a nice combo--salty and sweet) and a garden salad.
