INSTRUCTIONS
In a large heavy kettle, melt butter or margarine; add carrots, celery,
onion, green pepper, mushrooms and ham (if desired). Cook over medium heat
until vegetables are crisp tender, about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Do not brown. Add flour and cornstarch; cook, stirring constantly, about 3
minutes. Add broth and cook, stirring, until slightly thickened. Add milk,
paprika, cayenne and mustard. Stir in cheese gradually, stirring until
cheese is melted. To avoid curdling, do not allow soup to boil after cheese
is added. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Serve piping hot. Makes
about 2 1/2 quarts soup.
A Message from our Provider:
“Let us thank God heartily as often as we pray that we have His Spirit in us to teach us to pray. Thanksgiving will draw our hearts out to God and keep us engaged with Him; it will take our attention from ourselves and give the Spirit room in our hearts. #Andrew Murray”
