This was so good! It was a breeze to make. I didn't do the bread bowls, sliced a sour baguette instead. If I was making for a dinner party, I would definitely do the bread bowl thing for presentation! Not exactly a "light" dish, but for an occasional craving- awesome! I will probably make again and keep warm in a crock pot as a dip with bread and veggies!

I have been using this recipe for 28 years, as told to me by a Scottish cook. The only variation is that I put toasted French bread, covered with more Scottish cheddar and black pepper on top. It really is a tasty soup.

My boyfriend and I LOVED this recipe! However, instead of blending the veggies, I chopped them up but left them a little on the bigger side so that the soup would be chunkier. We also just used sharp cheddar cheese and left out the bread bowls. Either way, I highly recommend this recipe!

Ok I made this last night for my mother and I and wow this was phenomenal. I used 2 crowns of broccoli and New York Extra Sharp White Cheddar with mild yellow and what a great combo. It was super easy to make...didn't have to do much. I was able to walk away while it simmered. My grocery store didn't have sourdough boules, but I was able to find Italian boules but they were smaller which was perfect because it was plenty. Will def. make this again!

This is a great recipe - I've made it several times, exactly as called for. This last time I think the broccoli was a little underdone after cooking 24 minutes - maybe if I'd kept it at a higher simmer. I think I used more cheese the first time too - probably a packed 2 1/2 cups vs. 8 oz. exactly. I serve it with french bread and butter on the side rather than in a bread bowl. Also, I think the nutmeg amount is great - not too much. Yummy!

My family LOVED this soup. The only thing I changed is that I grated the carrot and chopped the broccoli for faster cooking time. Turned out GREAT! My family even loved it before I added the cheese at the end. This definatly a keeper!

So easy & So delicious! I didn't have a bay leaf and went without and just finely chopped the broccoli & carrot because we like the texture. I added a little more cheese - maybe 3 cups and the nutmeg adds a good hint of flavor - don't add too much though! Can't wait to taste it with the bay leaves the nest time. Turned out great! Kids loved it! This is a keeper!

Very good recipe although it was a bit thick from the get go. Added all ingredients as recommended but did not purée the vegetables making for a hardy version of this soup. Made my own chicken stock as well which I thanked help mask the overwhelming nutmeg a bit.
