Tasted a bit bland while cooking. About a 1/2 teaspoon of chipolte sauce and a generous sprinkling of cayenne pepper improved it greatly.

Very filling meal on its own. I added more onion (about double) and a little garlic. I also added some very finely cut fresh parsley for flavour.

This tastes a lot like Panera's but is healthier. If you can't find fat free half and half you can substitute a can of evaporated skim milk and reduce the chicken broth by 1/2 cup.

I had to use colby jack because that's all I had in the fridge, but it was still great. Next time I will make sure to have extra sharp cheddar on hand, that way a little goes a long way in flavor. Thanks for posting! I love broccoli so I will be making this often.

This creamy soup is so delicious and so easy! We often use broccoli slaw instead of the florets to increase the fiber count.
