INGREDIENTS

  • 7 cups water
  • 9 cubes chicken bouillon, crumbled
  • 6 potatoes, cubed
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 large white onion, chopped
  • 1 bunch celery, chopped
  • 3 cups chopped carrots
  • 2 (15 ounce) cans whole kernel corn
  • 2 (15 ounce) cans peas
  • 2 cups chopped fresh green beans
  • 1/2 cup butter
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 3 cups milk
  • 1 pound processed cheese, cubed

DIRECTIONS

  1. In a large pot over medium heat, combine water, bouillon, potatoes and garlic. Bring to a boil, then stir in onion, celery and carrots. Reduce heat and simmer 15 minutes.
  2. Stir in corn, peas and green beans and continue to cook on low heat.
  3. Meanwhile, in a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt butter. Whisk in flour all at once to form a roux and let cook 10 seconds.

I made a kettle of this for the first time for my husband's family - with fresh baked loaves of caraway rye and wholegrain bread - What a simple recipe and soooooo delicious!! Making it ahead of time and just warming it to serve allowed me to enjoy my family! I did minor changes - I used small bags of frozen peas and beans and broccoli instead of the canned peas and fresh beans. This is a keeper!!

This is awesome. My husband who hates soup loved this. A huge hit even with my picky 2yo daughter. She asked for seconds. My husband does not like "thin" foods so I added a can of cheddar cheese soup undiluted and it made it perfect. I also added a can of chopped clams drained of course. Wonderful soup.

I'm just starting out, when it comes to making soup. I saw this recipe and I had to try it. Best decision I've ever made. My family loves it, and it still tastes great from the microwave. I highly recommend this recipe to anyone who enjoys a hearty chowdered soup like me. Can't wait to make it again, and again!
