Starry Broccoli Cheese

I tweaked a recipe I found on allrecipes.com I made a few changes to my taste. So here we go...

Ingredients:

1 tbsp butter

1/2 tsp onion powder (you can use real onion, but I just wanted a slight taste instead of onion pieces)

1 clove garlic, minced

1 brick- velveeta cheese, cut into cubes

2 (14oz) cans - Chicken broth

1 1/2 cups milk, I used fat free

1 1/2 cups water (for the milk and water I filled the can from the chicken broth)

1 (16oz) bag - frozen broccoli/broccoli cauliflower mix

1 bag star shaped pasta

shredded cheese for garnish

pepper to taste

Directions:

In a soup pot melt butter and saute garlic with onion powder. Add chicken broth and water and bring to a boil. Add pasta and cook for 2-3 minutes, not completely cooked.Reduce heat to medium and add broccoli, milk and velveeta, stirring constantly until cheese is melted, do not let come to a boil or cheese will burn. Serve immediately and garnish with shredded cheese on top.
