Cream of Broccoli Soup
For once, a vegetable soup that’s not pureed! This one has plenty of flavor and plenty of texture, and it makes a wonderful lunch when served with an herb bread and a fruit dessert. If you prefer an even stronger flavor, try substituting a sharper variety for all or part of the cheese.

This soup was delicious! However, next time I make it, I’m going to use chicken broth instead of the water to boost the flavor even more!
