01Ingredients

  • 2 cups of broccoli florets
  • 3 cups of chicken or vegetable broth
  • 1 cup of milk
  • 1/2 cup of diced onions
  • 2 cloves of garlic, minced
  • 2 tablespoons of butter
  • 1/4 cup of all-purpose flour
  • 8 ounces of velveeta cheese, cubed
  • Salt and pepper to taste

02Instructions

  • In a large pot, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the diced onions and minced garlic, and cook until the onions are translucent.
  • Add the flour to the pot and stir until well combined with the butter and onions. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes to cook off the raw flour taste.
  • Slowly whisk in the chicken or vegetable broth, making sure to fully incorporate the flour mixture.
  • Add the broccoli florets to the pot and bring to a simmer. Cover the pot and let the soup cook for about 10 minutes, or until the broccoli is tender.
  • Using an immersion blender or a regular blender, blend the soup until smooth.
  • Return the soup to the heat and add the cubed velveeta cheese. Stir until the cheese is fully melted and incorporated into the soup.
  • Pour in the milk and stir to combine. Add salt and pepper to taste.
  • Simmer the soup for an additional 5 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
  • Serve the broccoli cheese soup hot, garnished with additional shredded cheese or fresh broccoli florets if desired.
