Broccoli Cheese Soup 1 small onion, minced
2 cloves garlic, minced
24 ounces chicken broth
16 ounces fresh broccoli
2 1/2 cups milk
1/3 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
1 1/2 cups sharp cheddar cheese, grated
Drizzle a small amount of oil in a large soup pot. Heat over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic and sauté until tender. Add broccoli and the broth. Bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer for 10 minutes or until the broccoli is tender. Place 1/3 of the broccoli and soup liquid into a food processor or blender and process until smooth.
Return this to the soup pot. Combine the milk and flour and mix well with a wire whisk. Slowly add this mixture to the soup and cook over very low heat for 20 minutes or until thickened. Remove from the heat and add the cheese, stirring until melted. Makes 6 servings |
