It's creamy, it's cheesy and it's good. You can add chicken if you like. I season the broth with garlic powder, pepper, sugar and salt. Ingredients:
2 quarts chicken broth |
4 heads broccoli, chopped |
1 small onion, chopped |
2 carrots, chopped |
1 bay leaf |
1 (8 ounce) package processed cheese, cubed |
1 pint half-and-half cream |
Directions:
1. In a large pot over medium heat, combine broth, broccoli, onion, carrots and bay leaf. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer until vegetables are tender. Remove bay leaf. (At this point, you may remove the broccoli stalks, carrots and onion and puree in a food processor, then return them to the pot, if desired.)
2. Stir in the cheese until melted. Adjust seasonings. Stir in half-and-half and heat through.
