“A creamy broccoli soup that will please the most fussy eater, even children love it. Compliment with crusty Italian bread for a quick, easy meal. For variety, try substituting cauliflower, shredded carrots, or any combination of the three vegetables, keeping the total amount at 4 cups vegetables.”

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 quarts chicken broth
  • 4 cups fresh chopped broccoli
  • 2 cups milk
  • 2 (10.75 ounce) cans condensed cream of celery soup
  • 4 tablespoons cornstarch
  • 1/2 cup cold water
  • 8 ounces shredded Cheddar cheese

Steps

  1. In a large soup pot, cook broccoli in broth until tender, do not drain. Set aside.
  2. In a bowl, mix together milk and celery soup. Blend cornstarch and cold water, then stir into soup and milk mixture.
  3. Pour soup over cooked vegetables. Return pot to medium heat. Cook, stirring steadily until thick and bubbly. Stir in cheese; simmer, stirring until hot. Do not boil.

Notes

Makes 12-14 servings. (Printed nutrition panel lists “Servings Per Recipe: 3, Calories 674” — likely a data-entry inconsistency on the original site.)
