I love this soup! It's so creamy and flavorful. I always add a little bit of extra cheese to make it even cheesier.

This soup is the perfect way to use up leftover broccoli. I always have a few leftover florets after making a stir-fry or roasting a chicken. This soup is a great way to use them up.

I'm a vegetarian and I love this soup! I just omit the chicken broth and use vegetable broth instead.

This soup is so versatile. I've added different vegetables to it, such as carrots, celery, and peas. I've also used different types of cheese, such as mozzarella and Parmesan. It's always delicious!

I made this soup in my slow cooker and it turned out perfectly. I just threw all the ingredients in the slow cooker in the morning and dinner was ready when I got home from work.

I'm not a huge fan of broccoli, but I really enjoyed this soup. The cheese sauce was so creamy and flavorful that it masked the broccoli flavor.

I used a combination of cheddar and Gruyère cheese in this soup and it was amazing! The different cheeses gave it a really complex flavor.
