Used chicken stock instead of water. Left some of the veggies course instead of pureeing all of them--this gave the soup some texture. Can substitute swiss for gruyere if necessary. Not a drop left in the bowl!!
Chedder is better

This came out good, expected bigger favors. For the price of the Gruyere and just on taste alone, next time would use chedder
Need to grate the cheese!

This recipe wasn't good when I cut the cheese into chunks (didn't have a grater at my mom's)

This soup called for way too much water, which is what I suspected after adding the first quart of water. I went ahead and added in the second anyway just to follow the recipe directions. The result was a watery and tasteless soup that needed so much more flavor. I added more salt and cheese but that didn't do it. Couldn't help but taste the flavor of hot water. So I sauteed more veggies and simmered it in chicken stock, added it into the "hot water" mix, pureed and had a perfect tasting soup. Could be thicker so next time I definitely would just add the 1 qt. of water and it would be perfect.
okay

This soup was just okay. It seemed like there was something lacking. It helped when I put cheddar cheese and garlic in it. I also used mostly chicken broth.
creamy and good

I added about 4 cups of broccoli. And added a little more spice and a little less cheese. Turned out perfect.
Hearty and spicy

I used 1 qt chicken broth and 1 gt water. The cayanne pepper really gives it some kick, which we loved.
Wonderful

I really enjoyed this recipe. Lots of flavor and very comforting. Like some of the other reviewers, I used chicken broth instead of water. I did use more veggies than recipe called for and substituted milk for the cream to cut back on calories. Also used a white sharp cheddar instead of gruyere. Some slight changes, but definately a solid basic recipe. I'm making it again tonight! Yum!
Need to tweek but delicious

Made this for lst time. Next time will double the vegetables and use a little less water. If you don't like spicy, you will need to cut back on the cayenne.
Very Good but Labor Intensive

Soup is very tasty. I added some cornstarch to make it a little thicker. Soup was very good but it is labor intensive.

Easy and Excellent - My family is begging for more of this so here we go I'm making it again (just made it three days ago) to enjoy while we watch the Phoenix Suns win another game.
Broccoli and Gruyere soup

It is a very good soup, it is also pretty easy to make (you just have to wait while the veggies are simmering). I did make some changes though: 1)I doubled the amount of veggies 2)I used mostly chicken broth 3) The recipe calls for a lot of liquid. I used about 1.5 quart of liquid, and I did not use all of it when I put the soup in the blender; I like broccoli soup to be somewhat thick, so next time I make it I'll use about 1 quart.
Great Recipe

I cooked this recipe several times. Its great, although I doubled the amount of vegetables in it after the first time I cooked it. Just seem to need more. But after that it was great.
