How To Make broccoli cheese soup

  • Step 1
    In a large pot, melt butter, and saute onions until very soft.
  • Step 2
    Add frozen broccoli, and cover with chicken broth (it might not take all 4 cans, reserve some for when its done to determine thickness) Bring to a boil, and let cook until desired softness. I cook mine until its falling apart.
  • Step 3
    Add cubed cheese, stir until all melted.
  • Step 4
    Mix milk and garlic and pour into soup, stir.
  • Step 5
    In a small bowl, combine water and cornstarch. After milk and garlic are stirred in completely, add cornstarch mixture. Cook until thick.
  • Step 6
    Add salt and pepper. Sometimes, it will need more salt, depending on your taste.
