  • Add 2 cups pasta, sliced carrots, and corn to the soup pot and continue cooking for 15 minutes at a low boil until pasta is at desired softness.
  • In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt 4 tablespoon butter, whisk in ⅓ cup flour and cook for 1-2 min until barely turning golden. Ladle 1 cup of hot broth from the soup pot into the flour mixture, whisking continually until well blended, then whisk in ½ cup heavy cream and transfer to the soup pot, stirring until well blended.
  • Season soup with 1 teaspoon Mrs. Dash and salt to taste if needed. Add 3 tablespoon dill, return to a boil, and turn off the heat. Enjoy!
