    When fall starts to arrive with cold, crisp air, my family always enjoys a generous bowl of soup. We try to have it at least a few times a week because it’s so easy to make, we always have leftovers, and they warm your body inside and out. With soup season being right around the corner, it has already hit here; I thought I would share one of my favorite soup recipes with you. We love it because it’s flavorful, filling, and we love topping it with delicious bacon. You can have never have enough bacon, right?

    As I am writing this, we are currently traveling to California and let me tell you, friends, fall has hit here. I was shocked because it’s still relatively hot and humid back home. It’s so chilly here at night, and we have been craving a big bowl of this Creamy Broccoli Potato Soup!

    The base of this soup starts with onions, carrots, and celery to give it flavor and then I added minced garlic when the onions were almost translucent. Then I added chicken stock, you can use store-bought or even homemade; then I seasoned it. Added the diced potatoes to the mixture, you are welcome to use any potato you prefer, I used russets, and then the broccoli. You want to wait to add the milk and flour after the potatoes and broccoli are tender. Once you add the milk and flour you will want to allow your soup to simmer for 10 minutes, then add your shredded sharp cheddar soup. I have tried this with mild cheddar cheese before, but we prefer the sharp. And the last part is mixing in your cream. 

    See how easy this soup is and the best part is you can have it on your dinner table in 30 minutes! That’s my kind of meal.
