I've never pureed broccoli for cream of broccoli soup, but I love it! I used vegetable broth in place of the chicken broth and didn't notice the difference. This is a fast easy recipe you can whip up during the week. This recipe won the Spirit of Betty Crocker Award. Recipe courtesy of Lisa Brannen and Betty Crocker's Best-Loved Recipes. Thank you Lisa!

[email protected]I followed the recipe exactly, but my soup turned out too thick. I had to add some water to thin it out. Other than that, it was delicious!

[email protected]This soup was a bit bland for my taste. I added some extra salt and pepper, and it was much better. I also think it would be good with some grated Parmesan cheese on top.
