Double the recipe is not overwhelming at all if you want leftovers for the rest of the week. Double makes 5 huge servings (how I liked to eat it) or 8 medium servings. Heats up great in the microwave.
Below portions are for 4 medium servings.
4 teaspoons butter
4 cups diced celery
1 cup diced onion (about 1 onion)
2 chicken stock cubes
4 teaspoons plain flour
2 cups low-fat milk or 2 cups skim milk
salt and freshly ground black pepper
Directions:
1. In a large saucepan, heat butter until bubbly, add celery, onion and stock cubes and stir until well combined. Season with some salt.
2. Reduce heat and cover, and let simmer for 10 minutes until veggies are tender.
3. Sprinkle flour over veggie mixture stirring constantly until mixture thickens. Add milk and bring it to a boil, but keep an eye on it because milk can overboil VERY quickly.
4. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
5. Puree the mixture. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
