This Broccoli Cheese Soup recipe is a recommendation from my mom, who got it while watching Good Morning America. It's by Chef Emeril Lagasse. My mom made it, said it was good, so Steve and I tried it out last night. If you're expecting the Velveeta-type liquid cheese-style broccoli cheese soup, you'll be disappointed; however, if you want something a bit more sophisticated and subtle that tastes like real food, this will hit the spot. Also, it's easy and quick.
Ingredients
2 T olive oil
1 1/2 c thinly sliced onions
1 T sliced garlic
1 t salt
1/4 t cayenne pepper
5 c chicken (or vegetable) stock
4 c broccoli florets
1 1/2 c sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
Heat oil, add onions, garlic, salt, and cayenne. Saute till onions are soft and translucent. Add chicken stock, bring to boil. Add broccoli, cook till fork-tender. Remove soup from heat, cool slightly. Then blend it in batches, adding some cheese to blend up with each batch. You're done!
