Broccoli Cheddar Soup

It has started getting cold here, I know not as cold as other places. But here in Southern California once it hits 60 degrees we are bringing out our sweaters. And with our sweaters on, I start making soup.

What’s great about soup? Is that you don’t have to be exact with your measurements. You can add just about anything, it’s very flexible.

Ingredients to make Broccoli Cheddar Soup

When I ever would go out to eat (which is VERY rare) and see broccoli cheddar soup on the menu, it wouldn’t appeal to me. And I love soup, any kind of soup I am there. But once I began making it myself, I’m in love with this soup.

As you see here the broccoli, when you chop the broccoli it does not have to be perfect just give it a ruff chop into small pieces.
