I came up with this very simple recipe after researching all different recipes and not liking EVERYTHING about any of them. So I just took the best things that I liked from a couple recipe's that looked good and tried it out. I came up with this VERY simple..

2 cups whole milk or 2 cups 2% low-fat milk |
3 tablespoons melted butter |
3 tablespoons flour |

1 teaspoon pepper |
1 teaspoon garlic powder |

1. In a medium pot, bring potatoes, carrots, onion, chicken broth and salt to boil.
