Great Low Point Broccoli and Cheese Soup!

Ok, I tried this recipe, and it's sooooooo good. It's only 4 points for 1 and 1/3 cups of this soup! And FH has no idea it's lowfat

Broccoli and Cheese Soup:

Ingredients:
24oz Broccoli florets, frozen
3 cups fat free, low sodium chickn broth
2 cups 2% milk
1/3 cup flour
2 cloves garlic, minced
8oz Light Velveeta
salt and pepper to taste.

In a medium size saucepan, sautee the minced garlic(I use cooking spray).
Add the chicken broth.
Warm the milk in the micro for a minute or so to warm it up and add the flour to it until it is all mixed in.
Add the milk/flour mixture to the broth and stir for a few minutes until it thickens(watch out, it bubbles over easily!)
Then add the 8oz of Velveeta(cut it into chunks first)
Mix until the cheese is incorporated, then add the broccoli to cook right in the soup.
Salt and pepper to taste and you're ready to eat

An option to thicken it up even more, which I don't think it needs, is to put half of the mixture with the broccoli and soup in the blender. Hope you all enjoy!
