How to make Crockpot Broccoli Cheddar Soup
- butter
- onion
- garlic
- frozen broccoli
- carrots
- chicken or vegetable broth
- water
- pepper
- salt
- evaporated milk
- cream cheese
- sharp cheddar cheese
- On a medium/high heat, saute the 3 Tablespoons of butter, diced onion and garlic until onion is soft and translucent, about 4-5 minutes. Place in crockpot.
- Next put in frozen broccoli, carrots, broth, water, salt and pepper. Cook on LOW for 6 hours. After cooking time is up, add in milk, cream cheese and cheddar cheese. Stir , recover and cook for 30 more minutes.
- Working in batches, process the soup in a blender or with an emulsion blender. Blend as much as you like to get the texture you desire. The girls and I love some broccoli chunks in our soup, so I only blended half of the soup. Add all of the blended soup back to the crockpot until you are ready to serve.

Yes, in the direction, I suggest blending some….so you still have a few broccoli chunks 🙂
