I keep seeing recipes on different Social Media sites for copycat Panera Broccoli & Cheddar Soup – why can’t we knock it outta the park?
Broccoli-Potato-Carrot & Cheddar Soup
Serves 6 generously
1/4 C. Butter, melted
1/2 C. Onion, chopped
1/4 C. Flour
2 C. Half and Half (or just Milk will do)
2 C. Chicken Broth
3 C. frozen Broccoli Florets
1 C. Potatoes, diced & just cooked (I used the canned kind)
1 C. Carrot, cut into match sticks (I buy the bagged stuff)
2 C. Sharp Cheddar Cheese, shredded (don’t buy the bagged kind, it doesn’t melt well)
S&P to taste
Sauté the Onions in it until soft.
Sprinkle the Flour over the mixture. Cook and stir over medium heat for 1-2 minutes.
Whisk in 1/2 & 1/2 and Chicken Broth.
Add the Broccoli, Potatoes and Carrots. Cook over low heat for 10-15 minutes or everything is tender.
Taste for seasoning at this point, add as much S&P as you like.
If the Soup is too thick to your liking, add some more Chicken Broth to thin it out.
This is a hearty Soup. I served it with some nice warm Bread and a Salad and was stuffed!
Remember, a recipe is simply someone else’s idea, take it and make it your own.
Cook for your friends and family (especially homemade Soup) !
