Tips:

- For a richer flavor, use chicken or vegetable broth instead of water. - To make the soup extra creamy, add a splash of cream or half-and-half. - If you don't have mascarpone cheese, you can substitute cream cheese or sour cream. - For a bit of spice, add a pinch of red pepper flakes or cayenne pepper. - To make the soup ahead of time, cook the broccoli and onion according to the recipe, then let cool completely. Store the soup in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. When you're ready to serve, reheat the soup over medium heat until warmed through.

Conclusion:

Broccoli mascarpone soup is a delicious and easy-to-make soup that is perfect for a cold winter day. It is creamy, flavorful, and packed with healthy vegetables. This soup is also a great way to use up leftover broccoli. Serve it with a side of crusty bread or crackers for a complete meal.
