Broccoli and cheese soup

Because I am still at low meat or no meat diet, after Christmas, I will give you an adapted  recipe for broccoli and cheese soup. This soup, creamy and cheesy is classic comfort food with a lot of flavor.  Vegetables are steamed so the recipe is the healthiest you can get.  The recipe calls for pureeing the soup in a blender. I have an immersion blender and it worked just fine. Just be careful not to mess up the kitchen.

  1. tried this, but just used parmesan and cream cheese since i didn’t have sheep and goat cheese on hand. i still think it turned out delish though 😀

  2. Very pleased to hear that you are trying to cut back on eating animals, even wanting to stop eating then altogether! ❤ A big pat on the back to you! Thank you for liking some of my posts. I hope to go through your recipes soon. Take care 🙂

  3. I had talked to a friend recently about a broccoli Powerpuff Girls episode we saw as kids. The heroes were fighting broccoli monsters by shooting cheese at them. This soup can be them calling a truce, lol 🙂 I look forward to making it!
