THE BEST BROCCOLI-CHEDDAR SOUP
This outstanding broccoli-cheddar soup is rich, cheesy and packed with flavor. We decided to puree just over half the soup which makes it extra thick and creamy, and left the remainder chunky so there are broccoli bits in every bite. Gild the lily with more shredded cheese on top to satisfy your comfort food craving.

Steps:
- Melt the butter in a large saucepan or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the onion, carrot and garlic and cook, stirring occasionally, until just tender, about 5 minutes. Whisk in the flour and cook until golden, 3 to 4 minutes, then gradually whisk in the half-and-half until smooth. Add the chicken broth, broccoli, bay leaves, nutmeg, 1/2 teaspoon salt and few grinds of black pepper Bring to a boil, then reduce to medium-low and simmer, uncovered and stirring occasionally, until the broth has thickened and the broccoli is very tender, about 15 minutes.
- Meanwhile, prick the potato all over with a fork and put on a microwave-safe plate. Microwave on high until tender, flipping halfway through, about 6 minutes. Let cool, then peel. Use a fork or potato masher to mash until crumbly.
- Reserve 2 cups of the soup in a liquid measuring cup and discard the bay leaves. Let the remaining hot soup cool for 5 minutes or so, then transfer it to a blender, filling no more than halfway. Add the mashed potato. Remove the center cap from the lid and place it on the blender. Cover the lid with a folded kitchen towel to catch splatters, and pulse until very smooth.
- Stir the pureed soup and reserved 2 cups of soup back into the pot. Whisk in the cheese until melted and smooth. Season with salt and pepper. Ladle into serving bowls and top with more shredded Cheddar.
YUMMY BROCCOLI KUGEL
I've seen a number of broccoli kugel recipes which are quick and easy, but I always had unsatisfactory results with them (broccoli always came out hard and dry on top). This one takes a bit more prep time, but the results are delicious. It's adapted from a recipe by Giora Shimoni.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Cook broccoli in a pot of boiling water until soft enough to mash with a fork.
- Drain, then mash broccoli.
- Thoroughly mix together broccoli and remaining ingredients in a large bowl. (I've used low fat mayo with mixed results, so usually prefer full fat mayo.).
- Pour mixture into greased 8 x 8 baking pan. Bake for 40-45 minutes or until knife inserted into the center comes out clean.
BROCCOLI KUGEL
This makes for a great Passover dish. And not alot of eggs either, as you will find that many Passover dishes are heavily dependant on eggs, but not this one. Alot of broccoli goes into this dish as this is the main ingredient. I like to use both the florets and the stems as the whole tree is edible, although you will find that the florets will cook faster than the stem.

NEW MOM BROCCOLI KUGEL
This quick dairy-free broccoli casserole is a must at every event I host or attend. Based on the Jewish version of a crustless quiche (kugel), it utilizes basic ingredients and easy to put together before popping it into the oven. So easy, I could do it with a new baby in the house.
