Directions

Prep 15 minCook 30 min
  1. 1

    Chop onion, carrot, celery, and garlic in a chopper or mini food processor.

  2. 2

    In a large soup pot, melt butter. Add chopped vegetables and sauté on low heat until soft, about 5 minutes.

  3. 3

    Add flour, salt, and pepper to the pot and stir until smooth.

  4. 4

    Add chicken broth, milk, and potatoes and set heat to high until it comes to a boil, then cover and cook on low until potatoes are soft, about 10-15 minutes.

  5. 5

    Add broccoli florets, parmesan cheese, and stir well. Adjust salt and pepper to taste. Cook uncovered until broccoli is cooked, about 5 minutes. Add cheddar and American cheese, stir well and remove from heat.

  6. 6

    Using an immersion blender, quickly blend part of the soup for a quick second or two. If you don't have an immersion blender, remove about 1-2 cups of potatoes and broccoli, place it in your chopper, then add it back to the soup. This helps thicken it a bit.
