Aaaaaaw! I didn’t know you and Cookie + Kate were friends! Two of my favourite and most reliable recipe bloggers. This soup looks amazing, btw.

This looks great! I’m wondering if you could omit frozen broccoli and use fresh cooked? Then add it after purée?

I made this for dinner last night and it turned out GREAT! The potatoes make the puree super creamy; it still tastes like decadent broccoli cheese soup. I used the Instant Pot version and it was VERY easy to throw together. I made a couple of swaps, using frozen carrots, chicken broth and because I didn’t have enough frozen broccoli, I added some riced broccoli cauliflower rice. So this recipe is very versatile. Thank you!

Our whole family loves this! We use Trader Joe’s unexpectedly cheddar cheese, which I highly recommend. 👏

Did the crock pot version and my cheese didn’t melt even though I grated it from the block. Not sure why…

Otherwise def isn’t a substitute for a cream based soup but filling and good for a pureed soup. Reminds me of my baby’s food purees 😆.

Also accurate on timing versus notorious the recipe takes 30min claim when it’s really 1 hour or longer.

Made this mostly as written, though I threw in some kale left over from another recipe and used Yukon Gold potatoes since that’s what I had and this turned out great! I’d definitely make it again.

I’m not a fan of puréed soups. I suppose this means the soup will not thicken if I skip the purée process?

We recently moved to Joplin, so we understand about the frigid cold in Missouri – the soup will definitely be a warming treat! By the way, we did a Mediterranean cruise in 2018, stayed several days before and after the cruise in Barcelona, and ate tapas at several of the places you recommended back then. That was a trip we will never forget – thank you for your wonderful suggestions!

I was planning on making another version of broccoli cheese soup and this came across my email today. I just made it and it’s delicious as written! Will definitely be making again. I appreciate there is no flour or cream.
