Broccoli Cheddar Soup
Ingredients
- 3 cups low sodium chicken broth
- 3 med broccoli crowns (chopped)
- 1/2 a medium onion (diced)
- 1/2 cup cheddar cheese
- 3 cups heavy cream
- fresh cooked bacon bits
- chopped green onions
- 1 tsp salt
- pepper to taste
- garlic powder to taste
Directions
- Combine all ingredients (except for the cream) and bring to a low boil. Turn down heat, cover, and let simmer for 15 min or until the broccoli chunks are soft.
- Dump everything into a blender and puree.
- Return to the pot, stir in the heavy cream and bring it back up to a low boil. Season to taste with salt, pepper and garlic powder.
- Simmer for an additional 10 minutes or so. Once the cream goes in it'll be moderately thick so you will have to stir it well.
- Serve with more cheddar cheese, bacon bits and some green onions.
