"My husband's aunt shared the recipe for this creamy soup, which tastes like you spent all day cooking," pens Trinity Nicholas from Mt.Carbon, West Virgina. "It's very filling with a salad and bread. We spoon the leftovers over baked potatoes."

2 ounces angel hair pasta, broken into small pieces
1/4 cup butter, cubed
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
1 cup water
3/4 cup milk
1/8 teaspoon pepper
6 ounces process cheese (Velveeta), cubed
1/2 cup sour cream

Cook both the broccoli and pasta according to package directions; drain. In a large saucepan, melt butter; stir in flour until smooth. Gradually stir in the water, milk and pepper. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened.
Reduce heat; stir in cheese until melted. Stir in the broccoli, pasta and sour cream; heat through (do not boil).

This soup was really tasty! We have a local restaurant that makes this soup and it's pretty close! I added a few extras myself to this to give it a little zip! Lisa DeVenture, New Franklin Ohio

Delicious! I will double next time, because the servings were small. My 2 year old daughter kept saying, "this is so so good".

This recipe is so easy! The only thing I didn't like about it was that it only made a small amount (when I want a BOWL of soup as a meal, I want a BOWL not a cup), so next time I'll double (or triple) the recipe. It was SOOOOO good!
