This is my grandmas recipe. She makes this every year for lunch on Christmas along with her barley soup, which I haven't gotten the recipe for, yet:). It's not thick. Thin and creamy! Soooo good! My favorite soup.

How to Make Broccoli Cheese Soup
- 1Bring 6 cups of water to a boil. While that is working, finely dice broccoli, onion and celery. I use my food processor and mince. When water starts to boil, add your veggies and boil for 10 minutes.
- 2Then add seasonings and cheese. Stir until cheese is melted.
- 3Add half and half and butter. Bring to a boil.
For thickening, whisk 1/2 cup flour with 1/2 cup water. Slowly pour into soup, whisking as you pour. I always add this. - 4Enjoy!!
