Number Of Ingredients 8

2 tablespoons margarine
1/2 cup chopped onion
3/4 cup chopped celery
2 (10 ounce) packages frozen broccoli, thawed enough to separate
2 cups fat-free chicken broth
1 cup nonfat milk
1/2 lb processed Velveeta reduced fat cheese product, cubed
salt and pepper

Steps:

  • In medium saucepan, heat the margarine. Add onion, celery and cook until wilted.
  • Add broccoli and broth. Quickly bring to a boil. Cover and simmer until broccoli is tender, about 5 minutes.
