Broccoli Cheese Soup image

This is a great, very flavorful soup. Good for serving at luncheons or special gatherings with a quiche. To make this soup a little fancier, add 1 cup sliced mushrooms and 1 cup white wine with the onions.

THE BEST BROCCOLI-CHEDDAR SOUP



The Best Broccoli-Cheddar Soup image

This outstanding broccoli-cheddar soup is rich, cheesy and packed with flavor. We decided to puree just over half the soup which makes it extra thick and creamy, and left the remainder chunky so there are broccoli bits in every bite. Gild the lily with more shredded cheese on top to satisfy your comfort food craving.

Time 50m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

4 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 medium yellow onion, diced
1 large carrot, diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
2 cups half and half
4 cups low-sodium chicken broth
4 cups broccoli florets (from about 1 head)
2 bay leaves
1/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1 large russet potato (about 8 ounces)
8 ounces mild yellow Cheddar, shredded (about 2 cups), plus more for serving

Steps:

  • Melt the butter in a large saucepan or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the onion, carrot and garlic and cook, stirring occasionally, until just tender, about 5 minutes. Whisk in the flour and cook until golden, 3 to 4 minutes, then gradually whisk in the half-and-half until smooth. Add the chicken broth, broccoli, bay leaves, nutmeg, 1/2 teaspoon salt and few grinds of black pepper Bring to a boil, then reduce to medium-low and simmer, uncovered and stirring occasionally, until the broth has thickened and the broccoli is very tender, about 15 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, prick the potato all over with a fork and put on a microwave-safe plate. Microwave on high until tender, flipping halfway through, about 6 minutes. Let cool, then peel. Use a fork or potato masher to mash until crumbly.
  • Reserve 2 cups of the soup in a liquid measuring cup and discard the bay leaves. Let the remaining hot soup cool for 5 minutes or so, then transfer it to a blender, filling no more than halfway. Add the mashed potato. Remove the center cap from the lid and place it on the blender. Cover the lid with a folded kitchen towel to catch splatters, and pulse until very smooth.
  • Stir the pureed soup and reserved 2 cups of soup back into the pot. Whisk in the cheese until melted and smooth. Season with salt and pepper. Ladle into serving bowls and top with more shredded Cheddar.

5 INGREDIENT BROCCOLI SOUP



5 Ingredient Broccoli Soup image

I have always wanted to make a cream of soup all on my own since I always try to eat healthy but most all cream soups have butter and heavy cream and even flour so to make it easier for me and others I made it my own and got a rich and delicious soup that only includes 5 ingredients! This is a soup that you don't have to worry about counting calories because I substituted the bad ingredients with the good and savory.

Time 25m

Yield 4 bowls, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

3 heads broccoli
1 carrot
1/2 sweet red onion
3 cups low sodium chicken broth
1/4 cup evaporated milk
olive oil
salt and pepper

Steps:

  • Chop the broccoli into 1 inch pieces and slice the carrot into rounds.
  • Chop 1/2 of a red onion or the whole thing if its a small one.
  • Heat the olive oil, in a pot big enough to hold all the vegetables, over medium heat and saute the onion first for 1 minute.
  • Add the rest of the vegetables.
  • Season with salt and pepper(use white pepper if you have it) and cook until the onion turns translucent. About 10 minutes.
  • Add just enough chicken broth to cover the broccoli. (I like to use homemade chicken broth whenever I can.)
  • Bring to a simmer and cook until the broccoli is soft and tender.
  • Remove from heat and cool for a minute or 2.
  • Blend the soup in batches so it doesnt explode and make a mess.
  • Transfer the soup into a new clean pot and stir in the milk.
  • If you want it to be thinner add more chicken stock and season with salt and pepper.

5-INGREDIENT BROCCOLI CHEESE SOUP RECIPE - (4.3/5)



5-Ingredient Broccoli Cheese Soup Recipe - (4.3/5) image

Provided by á-26060

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 cups broccoli (fresh or frozen)
1 small onion
15 ounces evaporated milk (my favorite healthier alternative to heavy cream)
3 cups chicken stock (or vegetable stock to make this vegetarian)
2 cups cheddar cheese (I recommend using sharp for more flavor)

Steps:

  • Stir together stock, broccoli, diced onion, evaporated milk and cheese together in a medium saucepan. Heat over medium heat until simmering (but not boiling, or the soup will curdle). Then reduce heat to medium low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the onion is cooked and soft. Season soup with salt and pepper if needed. Serve warm.
