Cheese & carrot chowder

Ingredients:
  • 2 carrots shredded (I use the juicer and then put the pulp and juice together)
  • 1 onion chopped
  • 1/2 stick of margarine or butter
  • 2 big tablespoons of cornstarch (or you can use flour but you will need a bit more)
  • 2 cups milk
  • 2 cups broth
  • 1 can tuna (squeeze liquid out and then flake into little pieces)
  • 1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar is the best)
  • 1/2 teaspoon of Worcestershire sauce.
Melt margarine in a pan, add the carrots and onion. Cook till tender - don't let it brown cause it won't look good in the chowder. Add the cornstarch (or flour) and cook a minute more.

Add the milk and broth and cook mixing till it gets thicker. Add the Worcestershire sauce and the tuna and the cheese. Mix till the cheese melts.

Remove from the fire and enjoy!

(even my finicky boys love this one - of course I don't tell them it has tuna or carrots)
