Melt butter in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add flour. Cook and stir until bubbling, about 30 seconds. Add milk, salt, mustard, and cayenne. Bring to a simmer, stirring frequently. Add broccoli and red pepper. Return to a boil. Then reduce heat and simmer for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add cheddar cheese and simmer until cheese melts. Serve with a topping of chives or scallions.
*Note- I used a 12 oz. bag of frozen broccoli florets which provided plenty of broccoli.
