This is one of the BEST broccoli cheese soups I have ever tasted. One of those things that was so good I was thinking, did I really make this or did Emeril sneak into my kitchen? Lucky me, I had some fresh broccoli from our local farmer and went out to my herb garden to snip fresh thyme, so it was extra yummy!

Very filling and easy. I used fresh broccoli and the hardest part was waiting for it to cook so we could eat it!

This is a super easy soup, with all of the ingredients in my kitchen most of the time. I changed a couple of things...I never have frozen broccoli, but always have fresh, I added 2T more flour because it didn't seem thick enough to me after pureeing, I only pureed 1/2 so there were still some broccoli spears to bite into, and I used skim milk and no butter at the end. I also used a sharp white chedder since anything more mild seems tasteless to me. If you can, make the croutons instead of using store bought ones in replacement. They are super easy to make if you have the essence already made up, and adds a nice zing.

It was hearty and very filling. I used fresh broccoli and substituted Parm and butter toasted bread for the croutons. 'Twas a little salty, but I think it was the chix stock used. Substituted Sour Cream for heavy cream, came out just right. This recipe was a hit, and a few neighbors who passed my door, asked what smelled so great.

My husband and I loved this soup and it was just enough for 2 servings the next day as leftovers! Great recipe.

This soup was very easy to make. It as thick, creamy, and cheesy! If you typically are very light on salt, I would not add all the salt required by the recipe to the soup. I love cheese, so I added chucks of Velveeta in addition to the shredded cheese required by the recipe. I used shredded white cheese instead of cheddar and it still taste just a great.

Very easy to make and very tasty. I typically don't like nutmeg in savory foods but just a pinch really does make this soup special. I only pureed half of it because I wanted some bite to it.

My hubs and I both love this soup! I used 2 cups reduced fat milk instead of the cream and skipped the croutons (served with a warm, crusty baguette instead, delish! Will definitely make again!
