1 tsp. each salt, pepper & garlic powder
1 c. flour
1/2 c. butter

Simmer first 5 ingredients until cubes are dissolved. Make a rue in another pan with next 2 ingredients, until smooth and blended. Add next 2 ingredients to broth (first 5 ingredients). Add rue a little at a time while heating, until soup is as thick as desired (save any left over rue in refrigerator for gravy base). Add broccoli. Cauliflower or asparagus can be used instead.
