Hearty Broccoli Soup~

I hope everyone had a happy Thanksgiving! As it gets colder and colder, we all end up craving more comfort foods that make us all fuzzy and warm inside. And in my opinion, what does that better than a thick soup? So in honor of this crisp autumn weather, here’s a yummy broccoli soup recipe! I made this recipe over Thanksgiving break. It is rich, filling, and full of delicious flavor! So give this recipe a shot, and I guarantee that you won’t be disappointed!

Ingredients:

·      2 cups diced potatoes

·      1 cup chopped onions

·      1 cup carrots, thinly sliced

·      ½ cup minced celery

·      1 cup water

·      2 cups chopped broccoli

·      4 cups milk

·      2 chicken or vegetable bouillon cubes

·      1 tsp Worcestershire sauce

·      1/3 cup flour

·      1 cup sharp cheddar cheese, shredded

Cook the potatoes, onions, carrots, celery, and water in a large pot for about 5 minutes over medium-high heat. Add the broccoli and cook for an additional 5-10 minutes. Add 3 cups milk, bouillon cubes, Worcestershire sauce, and salt and pepper and bring to a boil. Place the remaining cup of milk and flour in a small bowl and whisk until smooth. Stir the mixture into the soup and cook until just thickened. Turn off the heat on the stove and add the cheese, and stir until melted. Use an emulsifier or a blender to blend the soup until smooth, serve in bowls, and enjoy!!!
