1 onion, diced
5 tablespoons flour
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
pepper (I used 1/2 tsp)
1 (1 lb) package broccoli

In a skillet, heat butter, add onion and simmer about 5 minutes or until soft but not browned.
Stir in flour and seasonings.
Add onion mixture to crock pot and slowly add milk and water, stirring until well blended.
Add broccoli and cook on low until soup reaches desired consistency, approximately 5-6 hours.

Tips:

To make the soup even more flavorful, add a cup of shredded cheddar cheese or a tablespoon of grated Parmesan cheese when blending the soup.
Chopping the broccoli into smaller florets will help it cook more evenly.
To thicken the soup, puree a cup of the cooked broccoli and add it back to the soup.
If you don't have a crock pot, you can make this soup on the stovetop. Simply bring all of the ingredients to a boil in a large pot, then reduce heat to low and simmer for 30 minutes, or until the broccoli is tender.
