In the same kettle, saute onion in butter until soft. Stir in flour, salt and pepper. Gradually add milk, stirring constantly, until thickened. Gently stir in cooked vegetables. Add 1 cup or more of reserved cooking liquid until soup is of desired consistency. Add bacon. Yields 8 to 10 servings (about 2 1/2 quarts).
