Broccoli Cheese Soup

This soup, Broccoli Cheese, is not a favorite of mine. Oh, I do like it. It is good, very good, and it is definitely a favorite of most, for…

Every New Year’s Day, (except this year, temporary health issue) here at our home, we have a houseful of family and friends for a day of competition and prizes. We start with a current event quiz, and continue on with board games and cards. On the stove, or in crock pots, are 4 or 5 different kinds of soup…all yummy.  And every year, even though our friends bring a double batch of Broccoli Cheese, it is the first to disappear, thus it is deemed the favorite.

The recipe came from Betty Meyering, a friend of my mother’s, but in our family it is known as Mother’s recipe, for she made it so often. There are two important things to remember when working with this recipe. While cooking the vegetables, watch them CAREFULLY. Do not let them get mushy. Also, once you have added the milk and cheese do not overheat it. Keep the heat low, and don’t heat it longer than necessary. The milk/cheese mixture tends to break down.  Oh, here is a personal tip, which may not seem necessary to you. I only use Pet Milk – even if it means a trip to another grocery store.
