Ingredients

4 slices OSCAR MAYER Bacon, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
1 onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
3 Tbsp. flour
2 cups milk
1 can (14.5 oz.) fat-free reduced-sodium chicken broth
2 cups small broccoli florets
1/2 lb. red potatoes (about 2), cubed
1/8 tsp. ground red pepper (cayenne)
1 cup KRAFT Shredded Sharp Cheddar Cheese with a TOUCH OF PHILADELPHIA
1/3 cup BREAKSTONE'S or KNUDSEN Sour Cream
1 small tomato, seeded, chopped

Steps:

Cook and stir bacon in large skillet on medium heat until crisp. Remove bacon from skillet with slotted spoon; drain on paper towels. Discard all but 1 Tbsp. drippings from skillet.
Add onions and garlic to reserved drippings; cook 3 min. or until onions are crisp-tender, stirring frequently. Add flour; mix well. Cook 2 min. or until bubbly, stirring constantly. Gradually stir in milk, then broth.
Add broccoli, potatoes and red pepper; cook and stir 3 to 5 min. or until thickened. Cover; simmer on medium-low heat 10 to 12 min. or just until vegetables are tender, stirring occasionally. Add cheese and sour cream; cook and stir 1 to 2 min. or until cheese is melted and mixture is well blended.
Serve topped with bacon and tomatoes.
