Ingredients
Scale
2 cups of broccoli florets, fresh or frozen
2 medium-sized potatoes, peeled and diced
1 medium onion, chopped
2 cloves of garlic, minced
4 cups of vegetable broth (or chicken broth for a non-vegetarian option)
1 cup of shredded cheese (cheddar or a blend work best)
1 cup of milk (whole, low-fat, or a dairy-free alternative)
2 tablespoons of olive oil or unsalted butter
Salt and pepper, to taste
Optional: a pinch of red pepper flakes for added heat
Instructions
In a large pot, heat the olive oil or butter over medium heat. Add the chopped onions and minced garlic, sautéing until the onions are translucent and fragrant, about 3-4 minutes.
Add the diced potatoes to the pot, followed by the vegetable broth. Bring to a boil, then lower the heat and let it simmer for about 10 minutes until the potatoes are tender. Stir in the broccoli and cook for an additional 5 minutes.
Using an immersion blender, carefully blend the soup until smooth and creamy. If using a regular blender, allow the mixture to cool slightly before blending in batches.
Return the blended soup to the pot over low heat. Stir in the shredded cheese and milk, mixing until the cheese is melted and incorporated. Season with salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes.
