SLOW COOKER CREAMY POTATO, CABBAGE, BROCCOLI AND CHEESE SOUP



Slow Cooker Creamy Potato, Cabbage, Broccoli and Cheese Soup image

I wanted something a little healthier than regular potato soup. This has some extra veggies and fewer processed ingredients and is wonderful on a cold day. I had to guess on the cooking time as I was home for this and ended up cooking on high because I couldn't wait to eat it.

Categories     Low Protein

Time 6h30m

Yield 5 1/2 quarts, 11 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 cup chopped onion
2 teaspoons minced garlic
1 cup chopped celery, 2 stalks
12 ounces frozen broccoli florets
8 medium potatoes, cubed golden potato
1/2 teaspoon pepper (or more)
1/2 teaspoon paprika (or more)
4 cups chicken stock
2 cups water (more or less)
1 small cabbage, chopped
8 ounces neufchatel cheese (cream cheese)
1 cup shredded Mexican blend cheese (not the taco seasoning type, or cheddar if you like)
tony chachere's original creole seasoning

Steps:

  • Place everything except cabbage and cheese in a 6 quart crockpot.
  • Add as much cabbage as will fit and still leave about an inch of space between the top of the food and the lid.
  • Add water to almost cover the ingredients (about 2 cups when I made it).
  • Cook on low until soft my guess is 6-8 hours then use an immersion blender to cream everything.
  • add in cheeses and blend again, or let melt and stir.
  • This is a nice hearty soup for the cold snap we are having. It needed a bit more flavor so I added the tony's at the end. Adding bits of ham at the beginning might work for that as well.

CREAMY BROCCOLI AND POTATO SOUP



Creamy Broccoli and Potato Soup image

Puree potato and broccoli with garlic, leeks and thyme for a silky, savory soup.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 1h

Yield 4-6

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 tablespoons olive oil
1 cup sliced leeks, white and light green only
1 cup chopped peeled potato
3 to 4 sprigs fresh thyme
1 bay leaf
1 medium clove garlic, minced
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
3 1/2 cups low-sodium chicken broth
3 cups broccoli florets
1/4 to 1/2 cup heavy cream

Steps:

  • Heat the oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the leeks and cook, stirring, until soft, 3 to 5 minutes. Add the potato, thyme, bay leaf, garlic, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper and cook, stirring, until the potatoes are well coated, 2 to 3 minutes. Pour in the broth and bring to a simmer.
  • Add all but 2 to 3 of the broccoli florets, bring back to a simmer and cook until the broccoli is tender, about 20 minutes, adjusting the heat as needed to maintain a simmer. Remove from the heat, and let cool at least 5 minutes. Remove and discard the thyme and carefully puree until smooth with a handheld immersion blender or in 2 to 3 batches in a blender (do not fill blender more than halfway full).
  • Meanwhile, cut the reserved broccoli florets in half, lengthwise. Put in a small microwave-safe bowl, toss with a splash of water and a pinch of salt, cover and cook until bright green and crisp-tender, 2 to 3 minutes. Set aside.
  • Add the cream and reheat the soup if necessary. Adjust the consistency and seasoning with water, salt and pepper.
  • Serve hot and garnish each soup with a broccoli half.

DAIRY-FREE CREAMY BROCCOLI SOUP



Dairy-Free Creamy Broccoli Soup image

The satiny texture of this soup will make you think it's cream-based, but it's absolutely dairy-free and delicious! It's a perfect dish to use up leftover broccoli stalks that don't fit into other meals. It freezes well and makes a great winter warm-up snack or lunch! Can be served immediately, seasoned with black pepper, curry powder, or even grated cheese (for people who don't mind dairy) or can be frozen in individual portions and microwaved later.

CREAMY BROCCOLI SOUP



Creamy Broccoli Soup image

This is one of the best formulas for a creamy, savory broccoli soup - and it doesn't include any cream. Borrowing from the concept of using coconut water to provide the kind of richness that is reminiscent of bone broth in Yi Jun Loh's ingeniously vegan Malaysian ABC soup, this simple green elixir starts with a base of umami-loaded vegetables seared in olive oil then braised in coconut water. With silken tofu providing creaminess, this verdant, vegetable-powered soup can be pleasurably contrasted, in flavor and in temperature, with an optional dollop of sweet, cool ricotta. (If you're keeping this vegan, you'll still have plenty of creamy richness even if you leave the ricotta out.)

Provided by Eric Kim

Categories     dinner, lunch, weeknight, soups and stews, appetizer, main course

Time 45m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 pounds broccoli
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for drizzling
1 large onion, coarsely chopped
1 medium carrot, coarsely chopped
1 medium tomato, coarsely chopped
1 small sweet potato (preferably white-fleshed), coarsely chopped
Kosher salt and black pepper
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 quart unsweetened coconut water, plus more if desired
1 (16-ounce) container silken tofu, drained
Ricotta, for serving (optional)
Finely chopped parsley, for serving (optional)

Steps:

  • Cut off the broccoli stems, then cut the stems into 1-inch-thick slices. Separate the florets into small pieces. Reserve the stems and florets separately.
  • Heat a large Dutch oven or pot over medium-high and add the olive oil. Stir in the onion, carrot, tomato, sweet potato and the broccoli stems, spread in an even layer and season generously with salt and pepper. Let the vegetables on the bottom sear without stirring until lightly browned, 10 to 15 minutes.
  • Add the garlic powder and stir with a wooden spoon to hydrate the spice in the fat and continue cooking for another minute or so. The tomato will start to break down and get jammy.
  • Add the coconut water, raise the heat to high and bring the soup to a boil. Cover, lower the heat to keep the soup at a gentle boil and continue cooking until all of the vegetables are mostly softened and the stock is imbued with savory flavor, about 10 minutes. For a creamier texture, remove the broccoli stems to snack on or discard; for more broccoli flavor (and roughage), leave the stems in.
  • Stir in the broccoli florets and tofu, raise the heat to high and bring the soup to a boil. Cover and cook until a paring knife easily cuts the stem part of a broccoli floret, 8 to 10 minutes.
  • Carefully ladle the contents of the pot into a blender and blend until smooth. Taste and add salt and pepper as needed, then add more coconut water or water to thin out the soup to your desired thickness.
  • Serve hot in shallow bowls, each serving dolloped with a spoonful of fridge-cold ricotta, if using, and lightly drizzled with extra-virgin olive oil and sprinkled with herbs, if desired.

THICK AND CREAMY BROCCOLI CHEESE SOUP



Thick and Creamy Broccoli Cheese Soup image

This recipe came from my husbands Uncle Robbie, who is a great Cook. We were visiting him in Memphis on a cold and snowy day gathering groceries for the next few days. I mentioned how great a bowl of TGI Fridays broccoli cheese soup would be. The next thing I know we gathered the ingredients and were savoring this soup. I am so glad we did not go to the restaurant!!

Provided by Michelle-Hannahs mom

Categories     Vegetable

Time 40m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 lbs fresh broccoli
1 cup green onion (chopped and tops and bottoms separated)
2 (10 ounce) cans chicken broth
1 lb colby cheese
1 -1 1/2 lb American cheese or 1 -1 1/2 lb cheddar cheese
1 cup half-and-half
2 tablespoons flour
3 tablespoons butter
1 tablespoon fresh ground pepper
1 -2 tablespoon cornstarch (to thicken)
1/2 cup water
1 tablespoon oil

Steps:

  • Steam Broccoli by either putting in Microwave safe dish with lid and a small amount of water, or on stove in a covered sauce pan and small amount of water.
  • Cook just until soft.
  • Oil skillet 1/8" in bottom.
  • Heat, then add 3 TBS Butter.
  • Add 2 Tbs Flour, chopped Green onion bottoms and ground Pepper.

  • Stir quickly, using whisk if you have one.
  • Add Steamed Broccoli and any pan liquids.

  • Reduce heat.
  • Add Colby and American Cheeses.
  • Cook on low 1 minute.
  • Add 1 Cup Half and Half slowly, so it will not clump.
  • Here you must watch temperature, so keep it on low.

I have fallen in love with the Subway golden broccoli soup. However I found that it was high in fat. I found a recipe of a copy cat on the internet and tweaked to fit my low fat/ calorie lifestyle. 2/16/10 I tried making this soup again this time I didn't use preshredded reduced fat cheese. I grated my own using cracker barrell 2% sharp chedder. This made a huge difference the cheese integrated nicely and the soup was smooth.
