Ingredients:
- 1 head of broccoli, chopped
- 1 onion, diced
- 2 cloves of garlic, minced
- 4 cups of chicken or vegetable broth
- 1 cup of heavy cream
- 2 cups of shredded cheddar cheese
- 2 tablespoons of butter
- Salt and pepper to taste
Start by chopping up one head of broccoli into small pieces. This will make it easier to blend later on.
Next, dice one onion and mince two cloves of garlic. These ingredients will add a lot of flavor to the soup.
In a large pot, heat two tablespoons of butter over medium-high heat. Add the onion and garlic and sauté for a few minutes until they become fragrant. Then, add four cups of chicken or vegetable broth and bring to a boil.
Once the broth is boiling, add the chopped broccoli and reduce the heat to a simmer. Allow the broccoli to cook for 10-15 minutes or until it becomes tender. Then, use an immersion blender to blend the soup until it is smooth.
Next, add one cup of heavy cream and two cups of shredded cheddar cheese to the pot. Stir until the cheese has melted and the soup is creamy and smooth.
Finally, season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve hot and enjoy!
