Broccoli Cheese Soup

 

Broccoli Cheddar Soup 

Fresh Broccoli chopped. I buy bags of already chopped. 

1/2 C Butter

1/3 C Flour 

Spoon full of garlic.

2 Tsp Salt

2 Tsp Cracked Pepper

2 Tsp Garlic Powder

2 Cups of Chicken Broth 

2 Cups of Heavy Cream 

2 C Cheese

In a saucepan add butter. While its melting put flour in a bowl with seasonings. Once the butter is melted then you need to add in flour mixture. Whisk till butter is absorbed. Then slowly add in your broth, heavy cream and cheese. Whisk as you add it in. Once its combined and all smooth, then you will add your chopped broccoli. Cook on low till broccoli is tender. 

Serve with garlic bread. 

Low Salt options: You can use no salt chicken broth. However, the cheese does add in a bunch of salt. If you use the no salt chicken broth it helps lower the salt in it.
