easy homemade Broccoli cheddar soup

1/2/2020

Almost as good as Panera, this will warm you up on a cold day.  I like it with a toasted bagel and cream cheese.
 
3 T. Butter
1 small onion, diced
1 can cream of chicken soup
1 can cheddar cheese soup
2 cups 2% milk
1 chicken breast, cubed
1 carrot, diced
2-4 cups broccoli florets
2-4 cups cauliflower florets
 
     In a large sauce pan or small soup pot, melt butter and saute diced onion on medium/low heat until it’s soft.
     Add both cans of soup and 2 cups of milk. Increase heat to medium and stir until liquid is smooth.
      Add cubed chicken breast, diced carrot, broccoli and cauliflower. Stir well.
     Cover and cook on low/medium heat for about 15-20 minutes or until the vegetables are soft.
 
TO THICKEN:
Remove lid and continue to cook until soup is as thick as you want it.
Or…
Stir a tablespoon of corn starch into one cup of milk.  Increase heat until soup comes to a slow boil.  Stir corn starch/milk slurry slowly into soup.  Return soup to slow boil, reduce heat to low/medium, continue to cook until desired thickness.
Or…
Stir two tablespoons all purpose flour into one cup of milk and follow instructions for corn starch.
 
NOTE:  Flour cooks cloudy and corn starch cooks clear.  They both taste pretty much the same.  It’s all a matter of personal preference.
