Extremely cozy cuisine! Veggies and cheese in a smooth sauce. On weekends, my husband who loves steak and potatoes regularly requests this soup with fresh sourdough bread.

Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1 onion, chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- ⅓ cup all-purpose flour
- 2 cups milk
- 1 (10.5 ounce) can chicken broth
- 2 cubes chicken bouillon
- 2 cups frozen mixed vegetables, thawed
- 1 (8 ounce) package process cheese food (such as Velveeta®), cut into small cubes
- ¼ teaspoon hot pepper sauce

Instructions
- Melt butter in a large, heavy pan over medium heat. Cook and stir onion and garlic in hot butter until tender, about 5 minutes. Whisk flour into the butter mixture until incorporated. Reduce heat to low and cook, stirring constantly, until the liquid is thick, about 3 minutes.
- Stir milk, chicken broth, and chicken bouillon cubes into the butter mixture. Increase heat to medium and cook, stirring regularly, until slightly thickened, 5 to 7 minutes. Add mixed vegetables and cook until the vegetables are heated through, 10 to 15 minutes.
- Reduce heat to low; add process cheese food, hot pepper sauce, and white pepper. Cook and stir until the cheese is completely melted, about 10 minutes.

Reviews
I really liked this. I didn’t change anything. I used a 12oz bag of broccoli, cauliflower, and carrot mixture for my veggie mix. Def a keeper and will make again!
Very good! I did use a whole 32oz. carton of chicken broth instead of a small can b/c I wanted to make sure that there was enough for all of us, and that worked fine. Also, I had some fresh spinach that needed used up, so I threw that in too, which was a nice addition. Very easy to make…I will be using this recipe again! Thanks for sharing. 🙂
