Cheesy Vegetable Chowder
I made this tonight since I needed something easy and fast for dinner. I almost always have everything in the fridge for this soup. I really like it since my 5 year old also ate a whole bowl and asked for more, my Husband who does NOT do veggies even said it was not bad and ate half a bowl so it will be the meal plan again.
Ingredients
- Butter - 3 Tablespoons
- Onion - 1/2 cup chopped
- Finely Shredded Carrot - 1 1/2 cup
- Celery - 1 stalk, finely chopped (feel free to add more celery if you like celery; I don't, so I don't add much)
- Minced Garlic - 3 large cloves
- Chicken Broth - 4 cups (I used homemade I had in the fridge from the day before)
- Baking Potatoes - 2 large, peeled and chopped small
- Corn Starch - 1 Tablespoon
- Whipping Cream or Milk - 1 1/2 cup (I used 1 cup milk 1/2 cup cream)
- Broccoli - 2 crowns chopped
- Cauliflower - 1 1/2 cup chopped
- Shredded Cheddar Cheese - 2 heaping cups
- Red Cabbage - 1 cup, chopped
Instructions
- Melt the butter in a large pot. Add onions, carrots, red cabbage, and celery and saute until tender. Add garlic and cook 1 or 2 minutes.Next add chicken broth and potatoes, bring to a boil, and cook until potatoes are tender.
- Mix corn starch with the milk,
- Add cheese to the soap, and simmer until soup is slightly thickened and the cheese is melted.
- Add cream, broccoli, and cauliflower and cook until broccoli is just tender and soup is heated through.
