Yield 12 large bowls.

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 Lg Bunch of Leeks ( washed thouroughly and sliced into strips)
1 Lg Bunch of Broccoli (Chopped )
1/2 bag of Frozen Broccoli Florets
20 sliced Mushrooms (give or take, I like lots)
3 stalks Celery chopped
4-5 16oz cans of Chicken Broth
1 pint of 1/2 N 1/2
1 cup of White Wine (give or take)
1 Cube of Butter
4 Tbsp Flour
1.5 pounds of Jarlsburg or Baby Swiss Cheese chopped or grated.
1 cup of freshly grated Parmesan Cheese
Salt and Pepper to taste
Optional:
you can add a can or two of cheese soup or broccoli soup to your soup. Makes it thicker and adds more flavor.

Steps:

  • In a large pot over medium high heat add 1 cube of butter,chopped celery, sliced mushrooms and the sliced leeks. Saute until the leeks are tender.(About 30 minutes) Add 3tbsp flour and mix together. Let simmer for a moment. Add all the chicken broth and 1/2 n 1/2, stir. Bring to a boil, then add the chopped broccoli and 1/2 the bag of frozen broccoli florets. Stir and bring back to a soft boil. Add all the swiss cheese and continue to stir until melted. In the meantime add the wine. Keep Stirring! The soup should begin to thicken. After cheese is melted add a can or two if desired of the cheese soup. This is really just for extra flavor but isn't necessary. Salt and pepper to taste. Sprinkle Parmesan cheese on top of soup just before serving. Soooooo goood!

This soup was a bit too rich for my taste. I think I would have preferred it with less cheese.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my soup turned out way too salty. I'm not sure what went wrong.

This soup was a disappointment. The flavor was bland and the texture was watery. I would not recommend this recipe.

This soup was okay. It wasn't as flavorful as I was hoping for. I think I would have liked it better if I had used a different type of cheese.

Just tried this recipe and it was delicious! I was surprised at how easy it was to make. I didn't have any leeks on hand, so I used green onions instead. It still turned out great. Thanks for sharing!

I've made this soup several times now and it's always a hit! The combination of broccoli, leeks, and cheese is divine. I like to use a sharp cheddar cheese for a bolder flavor. This soup is perfect for a cold winter day or a quick and easy weeknight
