Ingredients

6 servings
  • 1 small onion (chopped)
  • 1 medium carrot (chopped)
  • 1 celery stalk (chopped)
  • 2 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 1 tbsp butter
  • 2 tbsp flour (AP, whole wheat or gluten-free flour)
  • 2 1/2 cups less sodium chicken broth (or vegetable broth)
  • 1 cup fat free milk
  • 2 medium potatoes (peeled and diced small)
  • 1/4 tsp kosher salt and fresh pepper
  • 4 cups broccoli florets, chopped into small pieces (about 2 heads )
  • 1 -1/2 cups reduced fat shredded sharp cheddar
  • 2 slices 2% cheddar or American cheese
  • 1 tbsp Parmesan cheese

Steps

  1. Chop onion, carrot, celery, garlic in a chopper or mini food processor.

  2. In a large soup pot, melt butter.  Add chopped vegetables and sauté on low heat until soft, about 5 minutes.

  3. Add flour, salt and pepper to the pot and stir until smooth.

  4. Add chicken broth, milk and potatoes and set heat to high until it comes to a boil, then cover and cook on low until potatoes are soft, about 10-15 minutes.

  5. Add broccoli florets, Parmesan cheese, and stir well. Adjust salt and pepper to taste. Cook uncovered until broccoli is cooked, about 5 minutes.

  6. Add cheddar and American cheese, stir well and remove from heat.

  7. Using an immersion blender quickly blend part of the soup for a quick second or two. If you don't have an immersion blender, remove about 1-2 cups of potatoes and broccoli, place it in your chopper, then add it back to the soup. This helps thicken it a bit.
