This soup was pretty good and easy to make; a good use for leftover ham. I just wish it were thicker. I used fresh broccoli, and I added chopped onion to the simmering broccoli. I only has 1 cup of cream to use, and the soup was still not thick at all. I'll make this again, but I'll melt the butter and add some flour to it before stirring it in. Thanx for this recipe.Reply
