Recipe by William Anatooskin 

"A tasty broccoli soup with a touch of cheese. For a richer, creamier soup, use half and half cream instead of whole milk."

Ingredients:
  • 4 cups water

  • 4 cups broccoli florets

  • 2 tablespoons margarine

  • 1 onion, chopped

  • 1 large stalk celery, chopped

  • 1/3 cup all-purpose flour


Directions:
  1. In a medium-sized cooking pot, add water and broccoli florets and bring to boil; reduce heat and cook for about 3 minutes. Drain, reserving all of the water.
  2. In a food processor or blender, process half the cooked broccoli until fairly smooth. Chop remaining broccoli and set aside.
  3. In a heavy-bottomed cooking pot, melt butter or margarine, add onion and celery and cook for about 3 to 4 minutes until soft. Stir in flour; cook, stirring constantly for about 1 to 2 minutes. Add reserved water and chicken bouillon granules, and bring to boil, stirring constantly. Reduce heat to medium; simmer, stirring constantly until thickened.
  4. Stir in milk, nutmeg, pepper, and processed and chopped broccoli, and heat through. Adjust seasonings to taste. Serve garnished with grated cheddar cheese.
