Golden Cream Soup

This soup is a good example of comfort food. It's cheesy, hearty, and perfect for cold winter evenings. My rating: 4.5 out of 5.

Golden Cream Soup

1 1/2 cups water
3 cups cubed potatoes
2/3 cup chopped carrots
1/2 cup diced celery
1/3 cup diced onion
1 chicken bouillon cube
1 tsp parsley
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepper

1 1/2 cups milk
2 Tbsp flour
8 oz Velveeta cheese, cubed

Add water, potatoes, carrots, celery, onion, bouillon, parsley, salt, and pepper to a large soup pot. Cook on medium for 15 minutes or until vegetables are soft.

Measure milk in a glass measuring cup. Add flour to the milk and whisk until flour is well-incorporated. Add to the soup pot and cook, stirring constantly, until thickened. Add cheese and continue stirring until cheese is melted.

Serves 3-4.

Perfect for this weather! It'd be also good as pot pie filling :)
