Vegetable Chowder

This is another recipe I got for my mom. I tried making it last semester and it turned out really well, so I'm going to make it for dinner tonight. I'm not exactly sure why, but it just seems like a good day for soup. Plus I'm going to be busy this week...that means I'll be eating lots of leftovers. This recipe is really easy and doesn't take too long. Eventually I'll start posting pictures, but I don't think this would look that great in a picture. You'll just have to take my word for it and make it! Later this week I'm going to try making garlic shrimp with basil, tomatoes, and pepper flakes. Stay tuned.

2 cups boiling water
2 cups diced potatoes
1/2 cup celery
1 1/2 tsp salt
1/2 cup carrots
1/4 tsp pepper

Boil above ingredients and simmer for 10 minutes.

Make a white sauce using:
1/2 cup melted butter
1/4 cup flour
2 cups milk

Add to white sauce 8 oz cheddar cheese and melt
Add to vegetables and water. Add 1 can corn (I use 1 bag frozen corn).

Heat through and serve
