Everyone needs a classic Broccoli cheddar soup. This is a great, tasty soup that is quick and ready to eat within 30 minutes. Serve with warm bread for a delicious meal.

Ingredients

Scale

1 medium onion, diced small

4 ½ cups chicken broth

67 cups of chopped broccoli (about 2 bunches)

2 bay leaves

½ teaspoon pepper

2 teaspoon salt

3 ½ cups milk

3/4 cup flour (1 cup if you like really thick soup)

½ cup cream

3 cups shredded cheddar cheese (preferable to not use pre-shredded)

Instructions

In a soup pot combine the onions, chicken broth, broccoli, bay leaves, salt, and pepper. Bring to a boil over medium heat and reduce heat to medium low and simmer till broccoli is soft and tender.

In a blender combine the milk (not cream!) and flour and blend on high till well combined.

Pour milk/flour mixture and cream into the pot and bring back to a simmer, until soup is nicely thick. Pour about 1/4 of the soup back into the blender and blend for about 5 seconds and pour back into the soup.

Add shredded cheese a handful at a time, stirring till melted and remove from heat.

Notes

This makes a decent amount of soup. I’ve had fine success in freezing this and reheating.

Halve the recipe if desired.
