POTATO SOUP WITH CREAM CHEESE



Potato Soup with Cream Cheese image

This is a family favorite throughout the fall and winter! It's easy to prep and great for a lazy day, filling the house with aroma. Have extended family and guests? Simply double the quantity of each item. It's that easy! I derived the potato soup with cream cheese base compliments of Panera Bread®. I added a few extras over time to appeal to the whole family. This a well balanced, full-flavored soup, with a hint of trailing heat compliments of cayenne. If you have picky "little" ones you can substitute red pepper flakes as a side garnishment. Serve with sharp shredded cheese and a loaf a fresh beer bread!

CREAM OF BROCCOLI CHEESE SOUP

Make and share this Cream of Broccoli Cheese Soup recipe from Food.com.

Provided by 2atdiemer

Categories     Vegetable

Time 20m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1/2 medium onion, chopped fine
6 tablespoons margarine
8 tablespoons flour
4 cups 2% low-fat milk (one quart)
1 bunch broccoli, stems and leaves removed
1 cup chicken broth or 1 cup water
8 slices American cheese
salt & pepper

Steps:

  • In a large pot over medium heat, cook the onions in the margarine until soft.
  • Stir in the flour and cook (but do not brown) for 1 minute, stirring frequently.
  • Whisk in the milk, reduce heat and stir occasionally.
  • Meanwhile, chop the broccoli florets into small pieces, place in a small saucepan with the broth (or water) and bring to boil over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover and simmer until tender (about 6-8 minutes).
  • As the milk mixture thickens, stir in the slices of American cheese and season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • When the broccoli is tender, add it (including the cooking liquid) to the thickened cheese mixture. Stir well to combine and serve immediately.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients: Fresh vegetables, flavorful cheese, and creamy milk will make all the difference in the taste of your soup.
  • Don't overcrowd the pot: If you add too many vegetables to the pot, they will not cook evenly. Add them in batches if necessary.
  • Cook the vegetables until they are tender: This will help to bring out their natural sweetness and flavor.
  • Use a good quality cheese: A sharp cheddar or Gruyère cheese will give your soup a rich and flavorful taste.
  • Don't boil the soup: Bring it to a simmer and then reduce the heat to low. Boiling will toughen the vegetables and make the soup less creamy.
  • Season the soup to taste: Add salt, pepper, and other seasonings to taste. You can also add a splash of hot sauce or a pinch of cayenne pepper for a little extra kick.
  • Garnish the soup before serving: A sprinkling of fresh herbs, grated cheese, or croutons will add a finishing touch to your soup.

Conclusion:

Cream of cheese soup is a delicious and comforting dish that is perfect for a cold winter day. It is also a relatively easy soup to make, so it is a great option for busy weeknights. With a few simple tips, you can make a cream of cheese soup that is sure to impress your family and friends.
