  OK, but not a substitute for the real thing

  Rated: 3 stars out of 5

  I made one substitution, that I used cheese made from 2% milk, which may have contributed to some of the texture problems,... but in my experience switching to low-fat cheese when it's blended in (as opposed to melted on top) usually doesn't make a huge difference (although no-fat is just gross when it melts). I agree with a previous reviewer that it ends up like ground up broccoli and beans. That being said, it taste bad at all, it just didn't taste like real broccoli and cheddar soup, which is I believe what it is meant to mimic. The bean flavor comes through pretty strongly, and even with the blending, it lacks the smoothness you would get from making a roux and adding real cream. Read more

  Great Soup!

  Rated: 5 stars out of 5

  This is a fast--delicious--soup! I would suggest adding a little more salt and pepper to taste, and if this is for a meal,... don't count on 6 servings (more like 3);Read more

  Souper Easy

  Rated: 4 stars out of 5

  If I had known how easy it was to make this soup, I would have stopped going to Panera a long time ago. Very good, although... I did add a lot more cheese than the recipe called for.Read more

  Good low carb!

  Rated: 4 stars out of 5

  I really liked this recipe. My one caution is NOT to use low fat cheese. I made this mistake the first time I prepared it and... it lost its desired creaminess. But besides that - I loved it!Read more
