- Steam Broccoli by either putting in Microwave safe dish with lid and a small amount of water, or on stove in a covered sauce pan and small amount of water.
- Cook just until soft.
- Oil skillet 1/8" in bottom.
- Heat, then add 3 TBS Butter.

- Reduce heat.
- Add Colby and American Cheeses.
- Cook on low 1 minute.
- Add 1 Cup Half and Half slowly, so it will not clump.
- Here you must watch temperature, so keep it on low.
- Cook 10 minutes.

- Pour in 1/2 of cornstarch mixture and stir.
- Then pour in 2nd half of mixture and stir.
- Turn heat off and stir until thick.

CREAMY, DREAMY BROCCOLI CHEESE SOUP
I have never made this kind of soup before, but hubby had a hanker'n for it so I went on a search for the perfect recipe. I found a couple that looked good, but wasn't exactly what I would do, so changed it up here and there until I came up with a creamy, dreamy recipe that will comfort any soup lovin' soul. I hope you enjoy this...

Steps:
- 1. In an almost large pot, steam your broccoli for 10 min and set aside. Dump out water and return pot to stove.
- 2. On medium heat melt butter and sauté onions until tender (approx 5 min). Add garlic and stir for 1 minute. Add flour and stir continually for 1 minute.
- 3. Slowly add chicken broth and stir until thick. Add evaporated milk that you have poured into a 2 cup measuring cup filled the rest of the way to the line with water. Stir until it begins to bubble. Turn off heat and take off of burner and then add steamed broccoli and cheese. Stir until melted and enjoy!
- 4. Serves 4 big eaters or 6 - 8 regular eaters.
Tips:
- Use high-quality cheese. The quality of the cheese you use will directly impact the flavor of your soup. Look for a sharp cheddar cheese that is aged for at least 6 months.
- Don't overcook the vegetables. Overcooked vegetables will become mushy and lose their flavor. Cook them just until they are tender-crisp.
- Use a good quality chicken broth. The chicken broth is the base of the soup, so it's important to use a good quality broth. Look for a broth that is made with real chicken meat and vegetables.
- Season the soup to taste. Add salt and pepper to taste, and you can also add other spices, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or paprika.
- Serve the soup immediately. Creamy cheese soup is best served immediately, while it is still hot and creamy.
Conclusion:
Creamy cheese soup is a delicious and comforting dish that is perfect for a cold day. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. With a few simple tips, you can make a creamy cheese soup that your whole family will love.
