Broccoli Cheddar Soup
This is a delicious recipe my kids love. A great way to enjoy veggies too!
2 tsp olive oil
1/2 onion, chopped
2 Yukon gold potatoes, pealed and diced in 1/2 inch pieces
2 small broccoli crowns, chopped (about 3 or 4 cups)
4 cups chicken stock
2 cups sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
Saute onions in olive oil until tender, about 5-7 minutes. Add potatoes, broccoli, and stock. Bring to a boil and cook until tender, about 12-15 minutes. Puree the mixture in a blender or use an immersion blender and do it right in the pot. Stir in the cheese.
Tips:
If the soup is thick you can thin it out a little with chicken stock, vegetable stock, or milk/cream
Use vegetable stock for a vegetarian version.
