This was a last minute choice when I realized I didnt have the salad I wanted to make for dinner. I didnt use the processed cheese I used cheddar and I subbed evaporated milk for the heavy cream. I used 2% milk. This was ok I changed it based on what I had on hand. I thought it was salty but nobody else mentioned it. I served it with home made garlic croutons, a half baked potato each and leftover cucumber onion and tomato salad.

This turned out SO good! I used 2 heads of fresh broccoli vs the frozen, 1 large chicken bouillon cube (what I had on hand) and a 1lb block of Velveeta. It didn't need any salt or pepper. It was perfect! I cut the broccoli up in little pieces, covered it with water and boiled it for about 10 minutes. I reserved 2 C of the broccoli water after cooking, in case I needed to thin the soup. Didn't use any of it. I think next time, I'll actually take more of the water out. It was a little runny but still tasted great!

I haven't made this kind of soup for a long time and couldn't find my receipe, so checked on here and found this one. I just finished making it. I had a little tester and it was delicious! I didn't measure my ingredients, just eyeballed and tasted. I didn't use any chicken bouillon cubes as there are a couple ingredients in them that I am allergic to (also why I had to go back to making my own soups). My husband doesn't like homemade soup, especially if it has anything green in it! I have found someone to share my soup with - my grandson's girlfriend. I texted her to see if she liked this kind and what a response! - she loves it! Hopefully I will find more soup receipes on here that will be just as good.

this was very good soup. My son really liked it and he's not a big fan of soup. My husband also liked it.

I didn't have cheddar cheese like so many reviewers recommend so I made it with what I had, shredded mozzarella and provolone. I drained the broccoli as most reviewers said it was soupy. But everything else was followed as stated. IT IS THE BEST BROCCOLI SOUP I HAVE TASTED!!! And I love broccoli cheese soup and order it almost at every restaurant that serves it.

Its a great base for broccoli cheese soup but when you add garlic, shredded carrorts and onions it makes it a GREAT soup!

This is an excellent soup and very tasty! I like soups to be rich, so I also added a can of cream of chicken soup and before I put the flour in, I dissolved it in cold water first so it wouldn't be lumpy. If you want a good hearty soup, this is the one to try!

Delicious and easy to make. I add chopped onion & med - fine chopped carrots to mine for color & flavor. I thought my base was a little runny, will dump less of the water into mix next time I also used 3 bullion cubes in the recipe. I will definitely make this recipe again!
