Cheese Soup

This is one of my most favorite soups. Make it when you need to take food to someone because it makes a lot.

3 stalks of sliced celery

8 potatoes, cut small

2 medium onions, cut small

16 ounces frozen peas

12-15 cubes chicken bouillon

1 16 ounce jar Cheese Whiz

3 cubes margarine or butter

3 c. flour

Boil vegetables (except peas) till partly done. Then add peas and set pan aside. Bring 1 1/2 gallons of water to a boil. Add chicken bouillon. Microwave opened jar of Cheese Whiz till softened and add to water. Melt butter and whisk in flour to make a paste. Add to water and whisk until smooth. Add vegetables and water. Simmer till thickened. Share with a friend.
