THICK AND CREAMY BROCCOLI CHEESE SOUP



Thick and Creamy Broccoli Cheese Soup image

This recipe came from my husbands Uncle Robbie, who is a great Cook. We were visiting him in Memphis on a cold and snowy day gathering groceries for the next few days. I mentioned how great a bowl of TGI Fridays broccoli cheese soup would be. The next thing I know we gathered the ingredients and were savoring this soup. I am so glad we did not go to the restaurant!!

Provided by Michelle-Hannahs mom

Categories     Vegetable

Time 40m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 lbs fresh broccoli
1 cup green onion (chopped and tops and bottoms separated)
2 (10 ounce) cans chicken broth
1 lb colby cheese
1 -1 1/2 lb American cheese or 1 -1 1/2 lb cheddar cheese
1 cup half-and-half
2 tablespoons flour
3 tablespoons butter
1 tablespoon fresh ground pepper
1 -2 tablespoon cornstarch (to thicken)
1/2 cup water
1 tablespoon oil

Steps:

  • Steam Broccoli by either putting in Microwave safe dish with lid and a small amount of water, or on stove in a covered sauce pan and small amount of water.
  • Cook just until soft.
  • Oil skillet 1/8" in bottom.
  • Heat, then add 3 TBS Butter.
  • Add 2 Tbs Flour, chopped Green onion bottoms and ground Pepper.

  • Reduce heat.
  • Add Colby and American Cheeses.
  • Cook on low 1 minute.
  • Add 1 Cup Half and Half slowly, so it will not clump.
  • Here you must watch temperature, so keep it on low.
