A super simple way to make broccoli disappear in a matter of minutes. Creamy, rich, not all that good for you but delicious. I actually would use much less cheese and then taste and add as much as you need because I dumped it all in the first time and it was actually too cheesy I ended up putting in some stock to thin out the flavor.
Cheesy Broccoli Soup
Ingredients
1 onion, diced
1 stick butter
⅓ cup flour
4 cups vegetable stock
2 cups half and half (or milk)
16 oz broccoli
2 cups cheddar, shredded
1 tsp nutmeg
salt, pepper
Directions
1
Melt butter in a pot over medium heat, then add the onions. Cook the onions for 3 to 4 minutes, then sprinkle the flour over the top. Once combined pour in stock and half-and-half. Add nutmeg, then add broccoli, some salt and pepper
2
Cover and reduce heat to low. Simmer for 20 to 30 minutes, or until the broccoli is tender. Stir in cheese and allow to melt.
