Time 55m

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 1/4 c chicken broth
2 stalk(s) celery, finely chopped
1 Tbsp onion, finely diced
1 medium carrot, finely shredded
1 stick butter, melted
3/4 c flour
8 oz cheez whiz
1 oz grated swiss cheese
1 oz grated cheddar cheese
1 1/2 c milk

Steps:

  • 1. In a large pot, bring the broth to a boil.
  • 2. Add celery, carrot and onion. Simmer 25 minutes until veggies are soft but not mushy.
  • 3. Meanwhile, melt butter in a skillet over low heat. Add flour and stir constantly with wire whisk, until smooth and free of limps. Cook this roux 8 to 10 minutes, still over low heat, whisking constantly to prevent scorching.
  • 4. Turn the heat down under the broth to medium-low. Add the roux to the broth. Continue to whisk until smooth and thick about 5 minutes.
  • 5. Slowly add Cheez Whiz and grated cheeses. Continue cooking until cheese is melted, whisking occasionally.
  • 6. Heat milk in microwave until warm. Add to soup slowly. Whisk until smooth. You can add more milk if needed for desired consistency.
  • 7. Serve with toasted croutons or crackers. Refrigerate leftovers.
