HAM, POTATO, BROCCOLI & CHEESE SOUP

A really hearty version of a broccoli cheese soup. My kids love it.

Ingredients
2 cups of cooked, cubed ham
6-7 potatoes, cubed
2 small carrots, grated
1 small onion, chopped
16 oz. bag frozen broccoli (can use fresh, also)
1 lb. Velveeta cheese, cubed
8 cups of water w/ chicken boullion (or chicken broth)
2 tsps. garlic
herbs to taste:
bay leaf, savory, thyme, dill, salt, pepper
6 Tbs. butter
1/4 cup flour
1/4 cup dry creamer
2 cups milk

Directions
Add ham, vegetables, herbs, garlic, onions, water & bouillon (or broth) to a pot, cooking until vegetables are tender. In another pan, melt butter and to it, add flour, stirring constantly until smooth. Next, add creamer and milk alternately, stirring constantly. Finally, add Velveeta and stir until melted. Pour this into the pot with the ham and veggies and mix well. Enjoy!

Prep Time: 10 Min
