This was really good. It's like getting broccoli cheese soup at a dinner. My little 2 year old liked it and my husband really liked it too. A lot of the reviews said it was a bit too salty for them. If your worried about it being too salty, just put the bouillon in last and add too taste. If you use powder bouillon it's easier to add what you want.

This soup was excellent! After reading the reviews, I was afraid it would be too salty, but didn't have any problems with it. I added a can of chicken with the soup thinking it would make it a little more hearty, but it didn't need it and will skip that next time. I did use the 4 cubes of bullion, but also used a tub of concentrated chicken broth. That may have helped with the flavor. Overall it was excellent, and my entire family loved it. Definitely a "do again"!

Wonderful, cheesy, vegetably, when I really needed it! Added a sprinkle of red pepper, and used all the old icky veggies in the fridge. Great recipe! Will make again (and probably again.) Thank you for this recipe.

I thought this was okay. Maybe a little too cheesy for my taste. Then I grabbed some leftover Christmas turkey and threw that in...it made a world of difference! So much better!

My kiddos (5, 3 and 2) love this soup and so does hubby. I did sautee my onions and celery with one clove of garlic before adding it to the soup. I also added a bay leaf while it simmered. I did not use the broccoli instead I used two 12oz bags of mixed veggies. I would have given it 5 without these changes but for personal preference will do it the same next time as well.

Hubby and I really liked this. My kids, not so much, thus the reason for the 4 stars. Was super easy though. Wish my kids would have liked it as I usually have all the ingredients on hand. Will make again, but scaled down a bit for me and hubby.

Delicious soup. Very easy to make. I have never been very good at making soups or gravies. I looked it over, had all of the ingredients and decided to give it a go. Since my wife loves soup, even if it wasn't all that good it would still get eaten. Everybody loved it! This one will go in the comfort food file and be cooked often. Thank you Jackie for such a great recipe. I made this soup again (a week later). Today I did everything as per the directions except I used a head of fresh cauliflower from the farmers vegetable stand. Once again, "souperb". Did not have to add any seasonings or even salt. Thank you Jackie for a perfect creamy cheese based soup that I can do just about anything to without worry of ruining it.

Flavor was good but it was still a little thin for my taste. I'll reduce the liquid in the beginning and add to it if needed in the future.

I really did like the base of this soup. I actually mixed the ingredients together and put it in my crockpot on low and let it simmer all day. The only thing I did not like is the abundance of veggies. I think next time I would add brocolli, potatoes and a few other fresh veggins. The mixed vegtables were a bit too much for my desire.
