I skipped the celery because I didn't have it, but added everything else as specified. This recipe is simple and delicious! A few bacon bits and parm on top complete it. I will definitely make this again.

I used this recipe as an inspiration for my own broccoli soup: basically I just use about 5 potatoes, steam them with 1 or 2 broccolis, then cook them a bit in about 3 tbsp olive oil. Then I add about 2 cups of chicken broth and a little bit of milk, season it with some salt, thicken it with a bit of flour, and tadaa. Easiest soup ever. Thanks for the idea. :)

i really enjoyed this soup. i barely mashed up the broccoli, i like having bigger chunks instead of it all being pureed. also, trying to watch calorie/fat intake i substituted a light butter spread for the butter, so obviously the butter flour mixture didn't really thicken like it would have if i'd used real butter. quick fix - mix 2T cornstarch with 2T water and it thickened it right up. very good soup!

Great soup! I made it as written - used my immersion blender to puree the soup but left some chunky bits for texture and interest. YUMMY!

Made this for friends while we were vacationing in central Oregon. It was incredible! Don't blend this - it's so much better with the texture. I even prefer it over the cheesy version of this soup! And it's good with fat free half-half!

I loved this soup too but because of what I had on hand, I had to make a few improvises. I used 1/2 c 1% milk and the rest 1/2 and 1/2 to make the 2 cups of milk needed. I put in a few shredded carrots for color. I wanted to make it a cheesy broccoli soup too and so I added the creamy cheese sauce from a macaroni and cheese box. It worked out really well and I will figure out what to do with the mac's next time! I thought it needed a little more broth so I added some more chicken stock but all in all it is a great addition to my soup recipes.

Pretty good recipe, the soup was missing something though so I added a can of condensed cream of mushroom soup. Along with salt and oyster crackers it spruced it up a bit and was prett good.

This is the "BEST CREAM OF BROCCOLI SOUP"!!! I've tried many & this time my family scraped the pot clean! They loved it! The only thing I didn't do was puree the soup.

I just couldn't get the right taste for my palate after initially making this, tasting it, then modifying it. I finally succumbed to adding Velvetta.

This is really good. I left out the celery since I did not have any on hand and it was still good. I plan on making this again and again.

I have made this soup again and again and it always hits the spot!I use shallots for the onion and I increase the celery and onion by not quite double.Like others have suggested I use a potato masher, but what makes this a five star recipe for me and my family is cheese. Before stirring it into the soup, I add about a cup of grated sharp cheddar to the milk mixture as it thickens. Not for the calorie counters, but SO delicious. I made this as the starting course for Easter dinner at my in-laws and it was a huge hit! The next day I put some of the leftover Easter ham into the leftover soup, YUMMY! Lastly, I have found that this recipe can be doubled or tripled without any problems. Thank you Jesse A!

This was pretty good but it was missing something. The only change I made was I put 2 garlic cloves in the onion/celery mix. The broccoli did take about 25 minutes to become soft. Next time I will leave broccoli chunks also. I ate it with crackers cause it was a tad bit bland. Boyfriend thought it was fabulous!

It's true - believe what you hear. This is a great recipe. I browned a little bacon in the bottom of the stock pot to brown the onion and celery in the drippings, added my own stock, simmered broccoli for 20 minutes, mashed broccoli with a fork (not too aggressively) and added a little shredded cheese to the roux before adding it to the soup. turned out absolutely delicious. added crumbled bacon to the top - really good.

This was a very simple and yummy start...but we felt like it needed to be thicker to stand on its own...we'll be adding some instant potato flakes for a little extra flavor and thickening next time. Thanks!

Great flavor - I diced up 3 med. size potatoes and added them till tender then I mixed in the flour and milk mixer. Also I used frozen chopped broccoli, by the time I was finished with the soup all broccoli had fallen apart so I didn't blend it. Really simple and great taste.

I made this recipe for a cooking class, and it turned out great! I made quite a few changes though, based on the other reviews. Instead of totally pureeing the broccoli, I just gave them a few spins in the food processor, and kept the stalks in as well. Doing it like this however means you won't get the rather nice green colour in the photo, and I also wish it was a little thicker. Next time I would make more of a roux to thicken the soup. I put in some cloves and nutmeg in for flavour, and some cheddar cheese. It was wonderful as a garnish, along with parmesan cheese. We also had some Parmesan Garlic Triscuits on hand and they went fabulously with the soup!
