Cheesy Broccoli Soup

By: Jo Maasberg 
"That's why she often serves Cheesy Broccoli Soup. 'This creamy and flavorful soup goes together in a flash because it uses frozen chopped broccoli and process American cheese,' she explains. Plus, it's easy to warm up if Bob works late. 'He likes it so much that when he grocery shops, he always makes sure the ingredients for this soup are on the list,' she reports."
