The Best Broccoli Cheddar Soup With Chicken image

This is delicious and lower-fat than most creamy soups as it has no cream in it. I have adapted it from a number of broccoli soups and added chicken (use pre cooked to save time) to make it a more complete meal. Perfect winter comfort food!

Yield 8 serving, 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

4 (8 ounce) cans low sodium chicken broth
1 (8 ounce) package reduced-fat cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup flour
8 tablespoons butter (I like smart balance) or 8 tablespoons butter, alternative (I like smart balance)
1 cup diced red onion
2 cups minced fresh broccoli
3 medium russet potatoes, peeled and cubed
2 cups shredded chicken
12 ounces cheddar cheese
2 teaspoons fresh garlic cloves
1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes (or to taste)
1 teaspoon black pepper

Steps:

  • Saute onion and garlic with 2 tbsp butter until onion is becoming translucent.
  • In another pan melt remaining butter and slowly add flour to create a roue.
  • Combine all ingredients in crock pot and simmer on high for 4 hours or until potatoes are tender.
  • You may need to stir often during first hour to ensure all ingredients are combined.
  • Top with additional cheddar cheese and green onions if you like!
