  1. I really enjoyed this soup. I cut the fat a little by only using 1/4 of butter. It was still thick and creamy. I did sprinkle cheese on top before serving. I'll make this again since I always have these ingredients on hand. Thanx!
     
  2. My girlfriend and I loved this soup!we also used fresh broc,butter,whole milk added salt, black pepper, we used bouillon without MSG and once the soup was in the bowls we added shredded chedder. after the soup cooked down for a little bit we blended 2 cups twice and added it back.this made the soup super creamy!
     
  3. Can't complain about this easy tasty soup! I used fresh Broccoli, chopped it up quite fine cooked it in the milk/stock. I used 4 cups 2% milk and 3 cups Chicken stock, no granuales. It was enjoyed very much by a convalescing friend.
     
  4. This soup is great! I used butter and fresh broccoli instead of margarine and the frozen veggies. It is easy to make, and it is delicious.
