Cheesy Broccoli Soup image

This delicious thick cheesy soup is delicious and freezes well. The potatoes help thicken it with out flour but don't add a real potato flavor. I make a big batch then freeze small containers to reheat quickly in the microwave when the craving for it hits me.

I'm not a huge fan of broccoli, but this soup changed my mind. It's so flavorful and the cheese really mellows out the broccoli flavor.

I added a few extra cloves of garlic and a dash of cayenne pepper to give the soup a little more flavor.
