Warming, healthy 30 Minute Broccoli Cheddar Soup. Let us not confuse this recipe with cream of broccoli soup. This soup is super cheesy with chunks of tender broccoli. I have also added some carrots for flavour and added health benefits. But you can’t even tell the carrots are in the soup. What I love about this recipe is that it takes only 30 minutes to make from start to finish for the most delicious, satisfying soup. The soup is packed with plenty of broccoli, herbs, some carrots and sharp cheddar cheese. It is so good! If you are thinking to make a satisfying, hearty soup, and don’t have the time, this may be the recipe for you. I like to serve gluten-free bread with garlic herb cheese swirl or easy gluten-free popovers with this warming chowder-style soup.

    Instructions

  • In a large soup pot heat butter and olive oil over medium-low heat. Add onions and cook until the onions start to soften. About 5 minutes
  • Stir in marjoram and bay leaf. Then add broth, broccoli, carrots, and season with salt and pepper. Cover and bring to boil. Reduce heat to simmer and cook for 10 - 12 minutes. The broccoli should be fork tender but not mushy
  • Remove bay leaf. Transfer about 2 cups of soup into a blender and blend until almost smooth. Return back to the pot with cream/milk and cheese. Cook until the cheese is melted and the soup is heated through. Enjoy!
