Provided by Linda Smith

Categories     Other Soups

Time 6h25m

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 c carrots (diced)
4 c broccoli and cauliflower flowerets
1 c celery (diced)
1 small onion (diced)
6 c chicken stock
6 clove garlic (roasted)
1 c ham (diced)
2 c shedded cheddar cheese

Steps:

  • 1. Put all except cheese in crockpot let cook for 6 hours on high.
  • 2. Add cheese let melt serve.

Tips:

  • Choose the right carrots and broccoli: For the best flavor, use fresh, crisp carrots and broccoli. Avoid carrots that are limp or have brown spots, and broccoli that has yellow or wilted florets.
  • Cut the vegetables evenly: This will help them cook evenly. If the vegetables are cut into different sizes, some pieces may be overcooked while others are still undercooked.
  • Don't overcrowd the pot: If you're using a small pot, cook the vegetables in batches. Overcrowding the pot will prevent the vegetables from cooking evenly.
  • Season to taste: Once the soup is finished cooking, taste it and adjust the seasonings as needed. You may want to add more salt, pepper, or herbs.
  • Serve with your favorite toppings: Carrot broccoli soup is delicious on its own, but you can also serve it with a variety of toppings, such as croutons, shredded cheese, or sour cream.

Conclusion:

Carrot broccoli soup is a healthy, delicious, and easy-to-make soup that's perfect for a quick lunch or dinner. It's also a great way to use up leftover vegetables. With its simple ingredients and versatile flavor, carrot broccoli soup is a soup that everyone will enjoy.
