This was a really good soup. I doubled the recipe. But I did not double the velveeta. Instead, I added a couple cups or so of shredded cheddar. My 4 year old grandson ate 3 servings. The other 2 wouldn’t even try it. More for us. I served it with grilled cheese croutons. Thanks.

I thought it was lovely...not sure why the lower raters expected a "creamy" soup...this is NOT cream of broccoli soup, it does NOT deserve low ratings! This recipe is easy and tasty, a pleasure to both make & eat!

I really love this soup. I thought I would be disappointed since it was not as creamy as I wanted, but the nutmeg flavor was awesome, and the addition of slightly moire velveeta helped make it thincker. I will certainly make this again.
