This recipe is so good I didn't have all the ingredients and it was still AWESOME! I didn't have 2 cups of cheddar cheese so I had to use 1 cup cheddar, 4 slices of American singles, and some Parmesan to make up the 2 cups of cheese. I like soup blended so I gave it a few seconds with a hand blender. Delicious!

This is one of my favorite soups, the proportions are perfect. Don't use anything but SHARP cheddar, and fresh broccoli is nicer than using frozen.

Being a WI girl, I had to try this. I was looking for a recipe to use up some left over cooked broccoli that I had in the frig, and this was perfect. I, too, like that it didn't use processed cheese (something is just not right about that stuff). This took about 20 minutes to make, and it made exactly enough for the four of us for dinner tonight. Bought some crusty french bread this morning that will go great with this. Thanks for the recipe!

This soup was super easy.....Not like St.Louis Bread Co. soup, but close to it. I used the california mixed veggies instead of just broccoli and carrots to make it heartier. This I will make again!

Needs more salt & broccoli. Used good home-made stock for base.

Good soup. My family enjoyed it. I used skim milk and reduced fat cheddar cheese. Didn't come out as creamy as I had hoped probably because of the cheese but still good.

I thought this soup was really good. I added about 1/4 tsp of nutmeg but I think I would add a little more next time and I would definitely add more veggies, as it really didn't call for enough. It was delicious!

I added garlic and 2 cups broth/2 cups milk (as was recommended) and substituted mushrooms for carrots. It was awesome!

I thought this was a good base recipe. I did however make a few changes. 1. I added 1/4 cup chopped celery to the saute and shredded the carrots 2. I doubled the broccoli 3. I added a 1/8 cup more of flour 4. I used chicken broth instead of water and bouillon and actually used 4 cups of the liquid 5. I used 1 cup sharp cheddar along with 1 cup of velveeta 6. I added 1/4 tsp ground nutmeg (I know it sounds weird but when adding nutmeg to broccoli dishes it adds just that extra bit of something. It doesn't taste like nutmeg but you just have to try it!

Yum yum yum! I added red bell peppers to the veggies when boiling in the first step. Everything else the same, except my family loves black pepper so I added more than called for. It turned out fabulous! My mom is still asking me to make it again and again!! Mmmmm Mmmmm Good!!!

very east and good base recipe. It definately vould benefit from more seasoning of some sort. I added extra water to the veggies when cooking. Overall good base recipe.

It's good, but I feel that it needs some added spices -- I'm just not sure what. I added garlic, Adobo salt, marjoram and a little cayenne.

Very good. My husband and I enjoy this soup for lunch on cold days. I always serve it with homemade garlic and cheese bread. I love the fact that it has added veggies to it and is not just cheese.
