Time 55m

Number Of Ingredients 9

8 c coarsely chopped fresh broccoli
2 c chicken stock (look hard enough and you can find a 0 carb broth)
2 1/2 c heavy cream
1-2 c cheddar cheese, shredded
1 tsp minced garlic (or more if you like)
2 Tbsp cornstarch (or less depending on how thick you like the soup)
kosher salt, and pepper to taste
1 med onion minced
2 Tbsp butter

Steps:

  • 1. Saute onion and garlic in butter until onion is soft.
  • 2. Add chicken broth, salt, pepper, and broccoli. Bring to a boil, cover and simmer 45 mins or until broccoli is soft.
  • 3. Next, add heavy cream... then add the shredded cheddar. Mix well, if you would like to thicken it up turn up the heat and add a tablespoon of cornstarch. Stir constantly for a few minutes. Still not thick enough? Add another tablespoon or so to reach desired consistency.
