all in all a pretty good base recipe. I tweaked it a bit though. I started by using more broccoli than it called for ( i used 16 oz snd it still wasn't enough ) and i pre-cooked it. I than put about 3/4 of it in the blender for a creamier texture. I also used fat free cream cheese and 2% velveeta it tasted no different just made me feel a little healthier. I also added lots of cajun seasoning blend.

This was good but I expected better-the broccoli didn't get totally cooked so it was crunchy- next time I will either let it thaw or cook it in the microwave first. The cream cheese is very good it gives it a creamy taste & the onion gave it a little bit of sweetness-I'm sure with a little tweaking to our liking it will be awesome. Thanks for a great basic recipe!
Yum yum! This soup was delicious and so filling! We loved it! I microwaved the frozen broccoli for a minute before putting it into the soup mixture to soften it up.
Easy and it tastes GREAT!! Thanks for the recipe. But I dont recommend using cheap cream cheese..kinda makes it lumpy.
I have been searching for a good Broccoli Cheese soup and I have finally found it. I did add a little bit more milk and some chicken stock because I like mine a little more thin. And I also added garlic powder as others had done. Very good. I cooked some rice and poured the soup on top for my kids so it was easier for them to eat. My son could not get enough of it. Thanks for the great recipe.
My family loved this soup! I added garlic pepper to it for a little extra taste. Even my picky 4 year old asked for more!
VERY VERY Cheesy! Good rich soup. Made enough for 4 meal size portions. I loved the cream cheese idea. My cream cheese was a little lumpy at first (yes I did use good cream cheese) but once the process cheese was melted in it was smooth as can be. I might add some chicken stock next time to thin it out because it was very rich. Awesome for soup though for fellow cheese lovers.
This was the best soup I have ever fixed - my husband really enjoyed it and suggested I pass it along to other family members. I added just a little garlic powder to the pot while it was heating thoroughly.
This is a good recipe. However I added about 5 shakes of tabasco and it gave the soup a nice warm flavor and boosted the flavor of the cheese. I cubed the velveeta before putting it in and it melted very fast but I did have my temperature up too high for a small part of the melting process because I found that the Velvetta scorched a little and left browned pieces. They taste the same just look different in the soup. I did use more broccoli than called for I found 16oz to be perfect for broccoli in every bite. Overall this is a good recipe I enjoied it.
WAY too sweet for me... it was VERY easy to make though...
