Broccoli Beer Cheese Soup
3 Tbsp. butter
5 celery ribs, finely chopped
3 carrots, finely chopped
1 onion, finely chopped
4 cups fresh broccoli florets, chopped
1/4 cup sweet red pepper, chopped
8 cups chicken stock
1/2 tsp. pepper
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup cold water
3 cups cheddar cheese, shredded
1 package (8 ounces) cream cheese, cubed
12 oz. beer or nonalcoholic beer
Optional toppings: shredded cheddar cheese, chopped green onions, sour cream and salad croutons
In a Dutch oven, melt butter over medium-high heat. Add celery, carrots and onion; sauté until crisp-tender. Add broccoli and red pepper; stir in stock and pepper. Combine flour and water until smooth; gradually stir into the pan. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, until soup is thickened and vegetables are tender, 25-30 minutes.
Reduce the heat to low. Stir in cheeses and beer until cheeses are melted. Top with additional shredded cheese, green onions, sour cream and croutons as desired.
