Place ingredients in saucepan and bring to a boil.

Simmer until vegetables are cooked through and slightly soft.

 Cool.

Put in blender and whir until pureed.  I put in small amounts and kept adding.  Of course, my blender is about twenty years old and I doubt at top proficiency.   added a few tablespoons milk to each addition.

Return to pot and blend in 1 – 2 cups grated cheese.  That is dependent on if you want the broccoli flavor or the cheesy flavor.  I used one cup.

cheese looks good

Add salt and pepper to taste.

Heat thoroughly.  Plop a tablespoon of sour cream on top, if you like adornment and a good taste addition.

  1. This looks great! I love how vibrant the colors are – yumm!

  2. I love using potatoes to thicken my soups too. It looks delicious and I added it to this weeks round-up. Thanks for sending it to Souper Sunday and for the shout out! ;-)

    Aloha,

  3. This sort of sounds like the soup I’m planning on making tomorrow :)

  4. How delicious this is with the potatoes in it! I’ve never seen a broccoli soup made with them. Awesome idea!
