This is the best broccoli cheese soup ever! I always double it so we have enough for the next day, and I recommend you do the same. It’s phenomenal!
This recipe was so simple and delicious! I’ve tried many broccoli cheese soup recipes before and none compare. I did add a little more broth to get the consistency I wanted, but I cannot recommend this recipe enough. Thank you, Julia!
Ok this is my new broccoli cheese soup recipe. I used to use a Panera recipe, it had 1/2 1/2 instead of cream. Well obviously this one with cream is way better!! I would always mess the other recipe up bc I curdled the milk and half n half. This time I used the same type of pot she did and it seemed to work better as far as distributing the heat.
Anyway, I digress. 5/5 for sure!! So good! I can’t wait to try your potato soup recipe!!
Hi Julia,I made the soup for dinner tonight. It was delicious 😋 served with a roll.
Hi Julia,I made the broccoli and cheese soup for dinner tonight. It was delicious 😋 served with a roll.
My husband and I both loved it! I thought this was the best broccoli cheddar soup recipe.
This is the best cheese broccoli soup I’ve ever had! The only thing I changed was I used some onion powder instead of an actual onion because I didn’t realize I was out of them.
I’m vegetarian, so I’d want to substitute something for the chicken broth, but still get a good-flavored soup. Would using a veggie broth still give it a good flavor?
5/5! I made this recipe tonight and it was so simple and turned out delicious!! I will definitely be making it again!
