Even though the directions need some fine-tuning, the soup was killer!! I scaled it down to make 1 serving, which actually made 2 servings, YAY, some for tomorrow! I didn't use Ragu for either sauces, I just made a 1/2 cup simple homemade cheese sauce (milk and velveeta), a 1/2 cup alfredo sauce, and a dab (about a 1/3 cup) of the white sauce. I then followed the lead of the other reviewer. I didn't add the chicken, but while taste-testing, I found it didn't really need it, for me anyways. It was awesome as it was, so I stopped there! Great soup!! (Mine was thick, but probably because of making my own sauces, but it was really good like that anyways! ;) ) Made for the ZWT4! :) Thanks so much! :)

Wasn't altogether sure about how to proceed with this recipe, so I used already cook chicken breasts & steamed the veggies until not quite done! Then, I started with the recipe, mixing together the sauces, beer & milk, brought them almost to a boil, then turned down the heat & simmered for about 5 minutes! Started making the roux at this point, which took 5-6 minutes, carefully melting the butter then adding the flour, stirring over a medium-low heat! Added the veggies to the soup as per step 2, then the chicken & broccoli, & finally the roux, then cooked another 5 minutes or so. Very nice tasting soup, & it should have 5 stars, but the directions were a bit incomplete!
