• 2 chicken bouillon cubes
• 1 Tbsp. dry parsley
• 1 tsp. salt
• dash pepper
• 6 cups water
• dash celery salt
• 1/4 cup flour
• 1/2 cup milk
• 6 cups whole milk
• 2 cups cubed Velveeta cheese

Directions:

Combine the first 10 ingredients. Bring to a boil. Turn down heat and simmer until vegetables are tender. Stir often so as not to scorch. Mix flour and 1/2 cup milk and add to soup mixture. Heat, stirring a few minutes to thicken. Add the 6 cups milk, stirring often. Add cheese and stir as it melts. Soup will thicken some. Add chopped pre-cooked ham, if desired, and more salt and pepper to taste, and a bit more milk, if desired. Makes a big pan full!
