                                Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons butter
 - 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
 - 1/2 cup chopped white onions
 - 1 cup half-and-half
 - 16 ounces chopped broccoli frozen
 - 16 ounces American cheese Velveeta
 - 29 ounces low-sodium chicken broth 2 cans
 - 1 cup carrots Julianne cut, or shredded
 - 8 ounces shredded cheddar cheese
 - salt and pepper to taste
 
Instructions
- In a large saucepan, melt the butter. Stir in the flour and onions. Cook for about a minute,
 - Slowly add the half-and-half, about 1/4 cup at a time, whisking until thickened and smooth.
 - When all of the half-and-half is incorporated, add the broccoli and processed cheese.
 - When the cheese is completely melted, add the chicken broth 1 cup at a time, stirring occasionally, until soup is well mixed and has a consistent texture.
 - Add the carrots and simmer for about 10 minutes.
 - Stir in the cheddar cheese and cook for 10 minutes more.
 - Season with salt and pepper to taste.
 - Serve when all the cheese is fully melted and blended through.
 
Notes
- Cheese Selection: Use freshly grated cheese (pre-shredded has anti-caking agents)
 - Roux Perfection: Cook flour and butter until light golden for best flavor
 - Temperature Control: Add cheese off heat to prevent curdling
