~ Cheesy Chicken Broccoli Soup ~ image

What a wonderful day for this soup. So flavorful on such a cold, blustery day. My daughter just loves this soup. It won't last long, as she always takes extra to work and shares with her buddies. I hope you try it sometime...it really is good. Enjoy!

This soup was a bit too cheesy for my taste. I would probably reduce the amount of cheese next time.

I made this soup in my slow cooker and it turned out great. It was perfect for a cold winter day.

This was a great way to use up leftover chicken. I also added some frozen peas and carrots.

I'm not a huge fan of broccoli, but I really enjoyed this soup. The cheese and chicken broth were very flavorful.

This soup was a hit with my family! Everyone loved the cheesy, creamy broth and the tender chicken and broccoli. I will definitely be making this again.
