I've had better. Didn't like the texture and adding a can of ready-soup isn't "from scratch" like I was looking for. At least it was an easy recipe though.

This soup turned out thinner than I expected, but had a great flavor. In retrospect, it was a little too salty. Next time, I will add salt incrementally instead of blindly following the recipe. I blanched the broccoli, which turned out great. I boiled the florets for two minutes, then placed them in a bowl filled with ice water. My family enjoyed this soup, though we prefer it to be thicker. If you also like a thicker soup, just add additional cornstarch.

Really good as-is or blended, which is what my kids prefer. Also amazing with some sour cream mixed in! We used vegetable broth and I eyeballed the amounts of onion and celery.

This recipe was a hit...no - a "homerun" according to my 1o year old son! I altered it a bit; after simmering the onions and celery and after the broccoli was done, I pureed the entire batch. No milk or cornstartch needed - they loved it as is!

I did not care for this recipe. All I could taste was the cream of mushroom soup in it.

My whole family, even the 2 yr old loved this soup. The only thing I added was one tsp of nutmeg. the nutmeg takes out the bitter broccoli taste. I have made this soup several times and will make it again!

I loved this soup, although I did add some bacon just for a little touch of meat and about a cup of velveeta cheese. Wonderfully satisfying. Thank You.

AMAZING. Just as good if not better than Panera's broccoli cheese soup. Creamy, cheesy and delicious. I used one can of chicken broth, 1 1/4 cup milk, 1 stalk celery, 1/4 of an onion, celery salt, salt and pepper, frozen broccoli (heated in microwave for 3 minutes), and just sharp cheddar cheese. Also, I didn't have cornstarch so I looked up the substitute and used 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour.
