Cream Of Broccoli Soup Recipe
Freezes beautifully, a great way to warm up with veggies in the dead of winter.

Ingredients
  • Bacon fat or butter
  • Onion
  • Flour
  • Garlic
  • Celery
  • Chicken stock (big can)
  • 1 - 3 heads broccoli (depending on how broccoli-y you want it ), washed, snapped into florets, stems heavily peeled and cut into rounds
  • Cream
  • Grated Cheeses: Cheddar and whatever other cheese you like. I add cheddar, parmesan, cream cheese, sour cream, etc.

Directions
  1. Sautee up a chopped onion in some bacon fat or butter with 2 T flour on med-low for 3 - 5 mins until translucent. Add more fat as necessary to the onion & roux. For a vegetarian recipe, use butter.
  2. Add 1 - 4 minced garlic cloves and some chopped celery.
  3. When garlic starts to brown, add a lot of chicken stock, the BIG can. Yes, the whole thing.
  4. Bring to a boil.
  5. Throw in the broccoli. Steam/boil until done. The broccoli is done when it's bright green and a fork slides into it easily. Do not overcook!
  6. Take off the heat.
  7. Blenderize/hand blenderize. Hand blenders rock!
  8. Warm it back up.
  9. Add some cream and stir.
  10. Add your grated cheese and stir.
  11. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper.
