I'm a vegetarian, so I omitted the bacon. It was still really good.

I'm allergic to dairy, so I used almond milk instead of regular milk. It was still delicious!

I didn't have any bacon on hand, so I used sausage instead. It turned out great!

The soup was a little too thick for my liking. I think I'll add some more milk next time.

This soup was a little too bland for my taste. I think I'll add some more salt and pepper next time.

I'm not a huge fan of cheese soup, but this recipe was surprisingly good. The broccoli and bacon really balance out the cheese flavor.
