Cream of Anything Soup

Yields 6 servings

Ingredients

  • ¼ cup butter
  • ¼ cup flour
  • 2 cups vegetable stock or chicken stock
  • Vegetable of your choice; precooked, pureed
  • salt and pepper
  • ½ cup cream or milk

Directions

  1. In a large pot over medium heat, cook butter and flour to make a roux.
  2. Add vegetable/chicken stock. Cook until thickens.
  3. Add vegetable, salt, and pepper. Thin with milk or cream. Do not boil. Serve hot
    Note

    Hint Works well with broccoli, asparagus or cauliflower.

    I sometimes use 2 cans of sliced carrots which is a real time saver since you don’t have to cook the vegetable. I put the canned carrots in the blender with the juice and also use two cups of chicken stock. Yum! Yum!
