Potato Cheese Soup

3 c. cubed potatoes (I like to use the frozen hash brown cubes, they cook fast and are easy!)
1/2 c. chopped carrott (short cut for this is shredded carrots)
1/2 c. chopped onion
1 tsp. dried parsley
1/2 tsp. celery seed
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepper
14 oz. can chicken broth

Put these in a frying pan and simmer until the veggies are soft. While they simmer:

4 Tbsp flour
4 Tbsp butter
3 c milk
8 oz. Velveeta cheese, cubed

In a soup pot melt the butter and add the flour, then the milk. Bring to a boil stirring constantly. When it has thickened, add the cubed cheese. Then add the simmered vegetables and broth mixture. Bacon bits are good if you like, but it's good plain, too. The total cooking time is 30 min or less! Nothing like easy dinner.
