Well, this recipe is a knock off of Grandma Jackson's Cream of Potato Soup. I was trying to make that but I did not have like half of the ingredients so I had to improvise and it turned out awesome. (As shown in the picture of Leah overjoyed at eating it and smearing it all over herself)
Ingredients:
1 cup butter
1 cup flour
3 cups chicken broth
1 tsp salt
1 tsp sugar
4-5 cups milk
spinach
peas
broccoli
potatoes
carrots
one onion
grated cheese, if you have it
Melt 1 cup butter in large pot, add 1 cup flour and mix well. Add 1 tsp salt and 1 tsp sugar. Mix up some chicken broth (or if you have the cans, add one can or so) I think I added 3 cups of chicken broth. Mix well and let thicken. Add some milk to desired consistency, I added about 4 cups of milk. It needed more than that but that is only how much my tiny pot could take.
Add some spinach, I had the frozen kind, just a few handfuls or as much as you want really. Add cut up broccoli and one cup frozen peas and take off the heat.
Boil water and cook desired veggies- I did carrots, onion and potatoes. Add cooked, drained veggies to sauce mix.
The recipe then called for cheese, but I forgot, it still turned out very creamy and awesome.
This made too much sauce for my small pot to hold with all the veggies added so I just froze the cream sauce with the spinach in it to use for something later.
This makes very good bread dipping soup! It made about 6-8 servings.
