Categories     Soups, Stews and Chili Recipes     Soup Recipes     Vegetable Soup Recipes     Broccoli Soup Recipes

Time 4h50m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 medium yellow onion, roughly chopped
2 cloves garlic, roughly chopped
10 tablespoons salted butter, divided
3 cups chicken broth
2 packets Swanson® Flavor Boost™ Concentrated Chicken Broth
½ cup all-purpose flour
½ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
1 ½ (16 ounce) bags frozen broccoli florets
19 ounces processed cheese food (such as Velveeta®), cubed
½ cup shredded sharp Cheddar cheese
½ cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese
2 ounces cream cheese
1 cup milk
1 cup heavy cream

Steps:

  • Combine onion and garlic in a food processor; pulse until minced.
  • Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onion-garlic mixture and cook until it looks like sauerkraut and is just beginning to brown, 5 to 8 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, combine chicken broth and flavor packets in a bowl.
  • Transfer onion mixture to a 5-quart or larger slow cooker. Add remaining butter to the skillet and heat until melted and bubbling. Stir in flour with a wire whisk; cook and stir for 3 minutes. Slowly whisk in chicken broth mixture and season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring constantly, until smooth and no lumps remain. Bring to a boil.
  • Add frozen broccoli to the gravy mixture and cook, stirring often, for 10 minutes. Use a large spoon to transfer broccoli to the slow cooker, leaving as much gravy in the skillet as possible.
  • Add processed cheese food, Cheddar, Monterey Jack, and cream cheese to the gravy; stir to combine. Stir in milk and cream. Transfer mixture to the slow cooker and stir until well combined.
  • Cook on Low, stirring once every hour, for 4 hours. Turn slow cooker off and let cool and thicken slightly before serving.

Tips:

  • For a creamy soup, use a combination of milk and cream. For a lighter soup, use all milk.
  • If you don't have a slow cooker, you can make this soup on the stovetop. Just bring all of the ingredients to a boil in a large pot, then reduce heat and simmer for 20 minutes.
  • To make the soup ahead of time, cook it according to the recipe and then let it cool completely. Store the soup in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days, or in the freezer for up to 3 months.
  • When you're ready to serve the soup, reheat it over low heat until warmed through.
  • Garnish the soup with shredded cheese, croutons, or chopped bacon before serving.
