Time 45m

Yield 8-10 Cups, 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 (16 ounce) bags frozen chopped broccoli
2 cups water
1 shallot (minced)
1 lb cooked shrimp (chopped into small pieces)
4 chicken bouillon cubes
2 cups heavy cream
2 cups skim milk
2 cups cheddar cheese
1/2 cup butter
1/2 cup flour
2 -3 potatoes (baked) (optional)
salt & pepper

Steps:

  • Place broccoli on pan with water and 2 bouillon cubes. Cook for 5 minutes, cover and remove from heat.
  • Saute in olive oil the shallots and shrimp until translucent and pink. Add 2 bouillon cubes.
  • In another pan melt butter and add flour. Cook for about 1 minute add shallots and shrimp and dissolved bouillon.
  • Add cream and milk. Add cheese and cook until melted.
  • Drain broccoli reserving the liquid. Add broccoli to soup base. Use reserved liquid to thin down if it is too thick. Add potatoes now if you desire. (I had left over baked potatoes so I skinned and chopped them and threw them in). Simmer on low for about 30 minutes and serve.

This soup was really good, but it was a little too thick for my taste. I would add more broth next time.

This soup was really good, but it was a little too spicy for my kids. I would recommend using less cayenne pepper next time.

This soup was a little too rich for my taste, but it was still good. I think I would use less cream next time.

I'm a vegetarian so I omitted the shrimp and it was still delicious! I added some extra vegetables to make up for the shrimp.

I love broccoli cheddar soup, but I wanted to try something different. This soup was just as good, if not better! The shrimp added a nice touch.
