1/2 cup diced carrot
1/2 cup diced red bell pepper
3 cups shredded cabbage (I used cole slaw mix)
1/2 teaspoon dill seed
1/2 cup butter
1/2 cup flour
1 cup milk
1 cup vegetable broth
3 ounces havarti cheese, cubed
1/4 teaspoon thyme
1/2 teaspoon white pepper
3 slices center cut bacon, cooked and crumbled

Steps:

In a large saucepan cook vegetables in 2 cups vegetable broth until tender, about 45 minutes. Add dill seed.
While vegetables are cooking make sauce as follows: Melt butter in medium saucepan; stir in flour and cook 1 minute, stirring constantly. Stir in milk and remaining 2 cups vegetable broth. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally until thickened, about 8-10 minutes.
Add cheese, thyme, and white pepper.
When cheese has melted, add to vegetable mixture and stir well. Add crumbled bacon and stir again.
Serve hot and enjoy!
