I love Broccoli Cheese soup! I especially like it when it is really cheesy and creamy. I experimented with this soup to get it to the right consistency and texture. I have it just right for my taste. I recently served it for a luncheon and it got rave reviews! So I declare it to be a "comfort" food even if it does have Broccoli in it. Enjoy!
