Somthing Yummy...

I had really great intentions of keeping up on this blog and when I made this yummy soup yesterday, it was just the push I needed to jump back in to the blog world. Here's the link. And here's the recipe:

 

Cheesy Vegetable Chowder from allrecipes.com

Ingredients

• 1/2 cup chopped red bell pepper
• 1/2 cup chopped onion
• 1/4 cup margarine
• 1 cup chopped celery
• 1 cup cauliflower, chopped
• 1 cup diced carrots
• 1 cup fresh chopped broccoli
• 3 cups water
• 3 cubes chicken bouillon
• 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
• 3 cups shredded Cheddar cheese (I used much less than this- next time I may even just let people add it to their own individual bowls)
• salt to taste
• ground black pepper to taste
• 1 1/2 cups milk

Directions

• In a Dutch oven or soup kettle, saute the pepper and onions in butter or margarine until tender.
• Add remaining vegetables, water, bouillon, salt, and pepper; bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer covered for 20 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender.
• Combine flour and milk until smooth; stir into pan. Bring soup to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes. Mix in the parsley. Just before serving, stir in the cheese until melted.

 I'll bet that you could vary the veggies that you put in and it would still be delicious. I will say that I was surprised by how yummy the red pepper was in it... ENJOY!
