    I didn't have cream cheese so I substituted ricotta in both the soup and the crouton. I prefer to make my broccoli soup with the stalks, puree with a stick blender and add the florets at the end.

    The crouton was the best egg salad ever! It would be great with any creamy soup.

    Overall, a bit flaccid. Would not recommend.

    Absolutely delicious! The soup itself was surprisingly easy, and though the croutons take a bit more time, they are definitely well worth it. I used Blue Moon beer, sharp cheddar cheese, and added a couple strips of bacon right before blending. When I make this recipe next, I will probably add a few tablespoons of butter and flour after the onions, before the beer, just to thicken up the consistency a bit more. On the croutons, I skipped the eggs (just because I ran out of time and used a loaf of french bread instead of sliced wheat.

    This just might be our new favorite soup. It reminded my husband and I so much of home style Bavarian food that we spent most of dinner reminiscing about all of our favorite meals we've had in Germany. Thanks for the recipe, Robert, and keep doing those nearly impossible missions!
