Broccoli Cheese and Potato Soup
Broccoli Cheese and Potato Soup is created with chunks of potatoes, carrots, onion, and fresh broccoli in a thick, cheesy broth for the ultimate comfort food.
Every taste of the rich and creamy broccoli cheese and potato soup contains potato and broccoli pieces. The broth is nicely flavorful thanks to the addition of garlic, carrot, and onion, and of course, cheese. Sharp cheddar enhances the flavor and assists in thickening the soup. Look at the pictures, please! Can’t you simply picture every mouthwatering bite of warmth and comfort? I can, but perhaps I am biased because I still have a lot of soup in my stomach.
