Super, tasty, scrumptious... Oh My! Words cannot describe how great this is!

Blue Ribbon Recipe

Velvety smooth and creamy, a bowl of this broccoli and cheese soup will be satisfying on a cool day. Salty and satisfying, it's better than anything you could get at a store. We like bits of broccoli in our soup. So before using the immersion blender, we spooned out a little of the broccoli. If you prefer chunks, we'd suggest doing that too. Serve on its own or with a sandwich for a hearty meal.
