Quick and Creamy Broccoli Soup
Who doesn’t love broccoli soup? I know we do! This is a quick and easy recipe that I am sure you will use time and again. It is rich, creamy, and cheesy! Who could ask for more, especially on a rainy day? We use it year round, lunch and dinner. It is so versatile. From a beautiful tea time luncheon, to a comforting dinner on a cold evening, this broccoli soup is a keeper.
One added note, broccoli soup freezes well, so you can double the recipe and freeze some. Hope you like it! Another tip is to keep a few bags of frozen chopped broccoli and you can make it up quickly with the other very basic ingredients that you probably already have in your pantry. The cheese is also optional, but not in my world. Another thing we love to have on a rainy day is goulash, find that recipe here!
