Next, combine your 1/2 cup flour and 1/2 cup butter and whisk over a md heat for about 3 minutes.
You will then slowly add the half n half, while stirring constantly.
Next, keep stirring and add the chicken broth.
Simmer for about 20 minutes - stirring occasionally.
Now add the broccoli, carrots and onion. Cook on low heat for 20 minutes or til the veggies are tender.
Next you will pour the soup into a blender to puree.
When you are done, place the soup into a crockpot on a low setting.
Stir the cheese into the mixture until well blended.
