Ingredients:  
Ingredients:  
3 Tablespoons butter
1 large onion, diced (approximately 1 cup)
3 Tablespoons flour
2 cups milk (any %)
1/2 teaspoon dry mustard
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon thyme
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1 (14.5 ounce) can chicken broth
1 package (10 ounces) Extra Sharp cheddar cheese, finely shredded
Paprika (optional)
Green onions (optional)
Directions:
Directions:
In a large pot saute butter and onion together until onion is soft and translucent.
Add flour and stir until all flour is absorbed by butter.
Slowly add milk 1/2 cup at a time, mixing well between each addition. Mixture will first get VERY thick then thin out during this process. DO NOT ADD ALL THE MILK AT ONCE!
Once all milk has been added, add mustard, salt, thyme, pepper and chicken broth.
Bring mixture to a boil.
Cook for 10 minutes or until thickened.
Add cheese and stir until cheese is melted.
Top with additional cheese, paprika or green onions.

Notes
This soup is not a main dish soup. It makes an excellent first course or side to a sandwich or other dish.

If you want it as a side dish, I recommend adding some shredded chicken from a rotisserie chicken.
