CHEESY BROCCOLI & CAULIFLOWER SOUP



Cheesy Broccoli & Cauliflower Soup image

This is a nice "chunky" veggie soup instead of pureed. Adjusted from a TOH Holiday magazine recipe submitted by J. Russell

Provided by HokiesMom

Categories     Chowders

Time 20m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 cups fresh broccoli florets
3 cups fresh cauliflower florets
3 celery ribs, sliced
1 small vidalia onion, chopped fine
2 cups water (or vegetable stock is fine too)
3 tablespoons butter
3 tablespoons flour
2 1/3 cups milk
1 lb process cheese, cubed (Velveeta)

Steps:

  • In a large saucepan, combine the broccoli, cauliflower, celery, onion, and water (or veggie) stock.
  • Bring to a boil then reduce heat and cover to simmer for 10-12 minutes or until vegetables are tender.
  • While vegetables are simmering, in a small saucepan, melt butter.
  • Stir the flour into the butter until smooth.
  • Gradually stir in milk to the flour mixture and bring this to a boil then cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened.
  • Reduce heat to the milk mixture and add the cheese then cook and stir until cheese is melted.
  • Drain vegetables and place back into their saucepan.
  • Add cheese sauce to the vegetables and heat through.

Tips:

  • Choose the right vegetables: Use fresh, high-quality broccoli and cauliflower for the best flavor and texture. If you don't have fresh vegetables, frozen broccoli and cauliflower will work well too.
  • Don't overcook the vegetables: Cook the broccoli and cauliflower until they are tender but still have a little bit of a bite to them. Overcooked vegetables will become mushy and lose their flavor.
  • Use a good quality cheese: The type of cheese you use will greatly affect the flavor of the soup. Use a sharp cheddar cheese for a bold flavor, or a milder cheese like Monterey Jack for a more subtle flavor.
  • Season the soup to taste: Add salt, pepper, and other seasonings to taste. You can also add a pinch of cayenne pepper for a little bit of heat.
  • Serve the soup with your favorite toppings: Some popular toppings for broccoli cauliflower cheese soup include croutons, bacon bits, and shredded cheese.

Conclusion:

Broccoli cauliflower cheese soup is a delicious and comforting soup that is perfect for a cold day. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. With its creamy texture, cheesy flavor, and healthy ingredients, this soup is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
