This soup has an excellent flavor and I love the quantity of vegetables it contains. However, for some reason it seemed like it needed more liquid so I ended up adding an extra cup of water and I used an entire cup of cream. I wasn't sure when to add the cream so I added it to the stuff you boil separately at the end. I also throw it in the blender after cooking. The smell of the veggies cooking was not very pleasant in my opinion so we were pleasantly surprised by the end product. Turmeric = palillo

This was a quick and tasty soup. Very tasty way to get kids to eat veggies. I added 1 cup of sharp cheddar and 1 cup of mexican blend cheese. Turned out very well! I also didn't have any turmeric so I used a bit of original mrs dash. I also subbed a can of 2% evaporated milk to cut down on calories even more. This is definately a keeper, thanks so much for posting!

This is the best Broccoli soup ever !!I've tossed all my other recipes. I made this in a large soup pot on the stovetop, not in a crockpot & it is perfect. Nice and thick and chunky. Perfect. Thankyou !!I served this with Cheddar Chive Beer Bread Cheddar Chive Beer Bread

Wow, great soup! I omitted the corn starch and milk, and simply sprinkled cheese on top of each individual serving (I used soft goat cheese). I also used one yellow onion instead of the red and green onion. It has a great spice and lots of veggies. Next time I'll add an ear or two of corn kernals. I was unsure if 4 cups of broth would be enough, but after a few hours of cooking in the crock pot, the other veggies released their juices. Still not a lot of liquid, but I like more veggies and less broth.
