Cheddar Broccoli Potato Soup Recipes

POTATO, BROCCOLI AND CHEDDAR SOUP

Steps:

• In a 4 to 5 quart pot, heat olive oil on medium heat.
• Add celery and onions, and sauté until they are softened about 5 minutes.
• Add potatoes, chicken broth, water, and salt. Cover with a lid.
• Bring liquid to a boil, then lower heat, and simmer for 20 to 25 minutes. Turn off the heat.
• Clean the outer skins of the broccoli and chop them into tiny, bite-size pieces. In a medium pot, bring 1-inch of water to a boil, then add broccoli and cover.
• Simmer the broccoli on a low boil for about 3 minutes. Turn off the heat and allow the broccoli to steam for another 2 to 3 minutes. Drain. The color of the broccoli should be bright green and tender.
• Add only HALF the cooked broccoli to the potatoes. Reserve and set aside the other half.
• Using an immersion hand-held blender, begin to slowly pulse up and down directly inside the large pot of soup to puree the potato and broccoli. Puree until well blended. If you don't have one, then blend in your blender but only in small batches and only use the lowest speed. The heat of the soup could pop the lid off the blender, so be extra careful.
• Stir in the remaining cooked broccoli and cheddar cheese. Continue stirring until the cheese is completely melted and blended. Season with fresh cracked pepper to taste.
• Ladle soup into bowls, and garnish with a sprinkle of shredded cheddar cheese on top. Serve warm.
• Optional: Before serving, top each bowl with some crumbled bacon pieces or croutons.
