Broccoli Cheddar Soup

My daughter made this soup for us one day and it was a big hit. She found this recipe on-line somewhere. It is a thick soup, but you can add more chicken broth and milk if you prefer a thinner consistency. I omit the salt as there is enough in the chicken broth and the cheese. If you don't have swiss cheese, it is also good with just the cheddar cheese!

This soup has little to it and doesn't take a ton of work, but has really well-developed flavor and is as close as you can get to a real classic soup. I used fresh broccoli for this, but you can use frozen as well. I wouldn't cook it quite as long as the potatoes/onions, though. Frozen tends to take less time. hands.matt -

Broccoli Cheese Soup Broccoli Cheese Soup
#GlobalApron 2024, week 39. Ingredient used; broccoli. I needed to use my milk and broccoli rather than it going to waste. I used all my cheddar cheese so I used velveeta cheese ( personally I like velveeta,(no judging). Soup is a dish you adjust to your liking. You may use less cheese and milk, add slowly until it is the consistency you want. cindybear -
