Cook 6 slices of bacon separately. (I recommend in the microwave on a couple of pieces of paper towel for about 3 -6 minutes)
Cook 1/4 c melted butter and 1/4 c flour using a whisk over medium heat for 3-5 minutes. Stir constantly and add 2 c half and half (If I don't have half and half you can use 1 cup milk and 1 c cream).
Add the 1/2 lb fresh broccoli, 1 c carrots-julienned, 4 chopped potatoes, bacon and onions from above. Cook over low heat 20-25 minutes.
Add salt and pepper. Can be pureed in a blender but I don't. Return to heat and add 8 oz. sharp cheddar cheese.
