Tips

  • For a creamy and flavorful soup, use high-quality cheddar cheese. Freshly grated cheese will melt more smoothly than pre-shredded cheese.
  • If you don't have an immersion blender, you can puree the soup in batches in a regular blender. Just be careful not to overfill the blender, or the soup could splatter out.
  • To make the soup ahead of time, cook it according to the recipe and then let it cool completely. Store the soup in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days, or in the freezer for up to 3 months. When you're ready to serve, reheat the soup over low heat until warmed through.
  • To make the soup even more hearty, add some cooked chicken or sausage. You could also add some chopped vegetables, such as carrots, celery, or zucchini.
  • Serve the soup with a side of crusty bread or crackers for dipping.

Conclusion

Cheesy broccoli potato soup is a comforting and delicious meal that's perfect for a cold day. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy soup recipe, give this one a try. You won't be disappointed!
