2 tbsp. chopped onion
2 tbsp. melted butter
3 tbsp. flour
1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. pepper
2 c. milk
1 c. grated American cheese
2 cubes chicken bouillon, smashed or broken
1 pkg. frozen broccoli, chopped
1 1/2 c. boiling water

Cook onion in butter until soft. Blend in flour, salt, and pepper. Add milk; cook, stirring constantly, until mixture comes to a boil and is thickened. Add cheese and bouillon, stirring until dissolved and melted. Separately cook broccoli in water until tender. Add broccoli and liquid to cheese mixture. Heat at low temperature about 10 minutes, stirring to blend well and avoid scorching. Serve and enjoy.

Note: For easier dissolving, dissolve bouillon cubes in the boiling water you use for cooking the broccoli.
