What to do with all that leftover ham from Easter? The kids are pretty picky eaters....this soup is actually something they will eat.

CHEDDAR CHOWDER

2 Cups water

2 Cups chopped potatoes

1/2 Cup chopped carrots

1/4 Cup flour

2 Cups milk

2 Cups Velveeta Cheese (16 oz.)

2 Cups chopped cooked ham
