Broccoli Cheese Soup

This is my favorite soup in the world. I love it, and can eat it for breakfast, lunch and dinner. I love that it's cheesy without being too cheesy. Does that make sense?

Boil together until tender:
4 carrots sliced
4 stalks broccoli crowns, separated
2 green onions sliced

Drain vegetables and save 1 1/4 c of the vegetable water

Mix over heat
1/4 c butter
1/3 c flour
until combined and slowly add
2 1/2 c half and half (I like the fat free stuff)
1 1/4 c vegetable water
5 chicken bullion cubes
mix until thickened and add back vegetables

Top with shredded cheese and serve with crusty bread, or Kathy's Breadsticks.
