Cream of Broccoli Soup Recipe

 

Cream of Broccoli Soup Recipe - Seriously Soupy

I was almost certain that this creamy broccoli soup has been on Seriously Soupy before -- but after some digging into the archives I only found it in this post -- 10 Super Soups for the Superbowl -- and not as an original recipe. I was excited to try (and eat) this comforting soup and everything about it was pretty simple to make: chop onions, garlic and broccoli and add basil and cream, cook and blend. But, what was amazing was the rich and creamy texture that can be modified to include parsnips, mushrooms, spinach, etc -- any extra veggies would be a perfect match for this rich soup. Enjoy!
