Print Recipe

A cozy and comforting Broccoli Cheddar Soup that’s quick to prepare and delivers delightful flavors with its creamy texture and rich cheesy goodness.

Ingredients

  • 2 cups broccoli florets (fresh or frozen)
  • 1 cup sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
  • 1 cup vegetable broth
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1/2 cup onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Optional: Croutons for serving

Instructions

  1. Sauté the chopped onion and minced garlic in a large pot with olive oil over medium heat until softened, about 3-5 minutes.
  2. Add the broccoli florets and vegetable broth to the pot. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and let it simmer for about 10 minutes, or until broccoli is tender.
  3. Lower the heat and stir in the milk and cheddar cheese until the cheese is melted.
  4. Blend the soup until smooth using an immersion blender. For chunkier texture, blend only partially.
  5. Season the soup with salt and pepper to taste.
  6. Serve warm, topped with croutons if desired.

Notes

Don’t overcook the broccoli to maintain its color and nutrients. Adjust thickness by varying the amount of broth or milk used.
