Feeling under the weather, and starving, I mixed up a batch of cold remedy soup! With garlic and cayenne pepper, it is sure to chase away the shivers!! Ready in 15 minutes!! I like to top it with garlic croutons :) Recipe can be easily doubled or tripled. Ingredients:
1 cup broccoli |
1 tablespoon butter |
1 tablespoon olive oil |
1 tablespoon onion |
1 garlic clove, minced |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon pepper |
2 tablespoons flour |
1 1/2 cups milk |
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese |
4 tablespoons cheese whiz |
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper |
Directions:
1. Steam broccoli in microwaveable bowl with 1/4 cup water, for about 3-5 minutes. Cool a bit, mash with a fork.
2. In a small saucepan, melt oil and butter.
3. Saute onion on low heat, with salt and pepper for 2 minutes, add garlic, stir in flour to make a roux. Slowly add milk, stirring constantly. Add mashed up broccoli.
4. Add cheeses, and cook until it thickens. Sprinkle with desired cayenne pepper.
5. You may wish to add a splash of Worcestershire sauce for an added zip!
6. If you dislike Cheese Whiz, use an extra cup of shredded cheddar.
