This is a fun little take off of another healthy recipe that I tried at a restaurant. I love to find new ways to use broccoli!

Steps:
- Bring a medium sized pot to medium-high heat and coat with non-stick cooking spray. Add minced shallot and cook for 1 minute. Add potato and broccoli cooking for about 2-3 minutes to caramelize.
- Add chicken broth and thyme to the pot. Season with some salt and pepper. Bring to a boil. Cover pot, reduce heat to medium and cook for about 15 minutes or until potatoes and broccoli are tender. Remove from heat and use a hand-held immersion blender to puree soup base.
- Place the pot back on medium low heat and add cream cheese, sour cream, and half & half. Stir regularly until ingredients are well incorporated and soup is creamy.
- Add shrimp and cook for another 3-4 minutes, or until shrimp are cooked through. Be very careful not to over cook -- they are done when they turn pink. If you over cook, they will be rubbery.
- Check for seasoning, add salt and pepper to your taste if needed.
- Remove from heat and serve with some fresh parsley as garnish.
