This is the best broccoli cheese soup. Not only that, it’s some of the best soup I’ve ever tasted, period,
It’s an easy soup to make and is ready in 1 hour. It’s absolutely perfect comfort food and I couldn’t stop eating it. I ate it for lunch and dinner for a couple straight days until it was gone. I loved this soup beyond words.
I kept the soup vegetarian by using low-sodium vegetable stock rather than chicken stock, and made it healthier by using fat-free half-and-half. But you’d think that it was made with heavy cream based on how thick, rich, and truly decadent it tastes.

Unsalted butter
Yellow onion
Garlic
All-purpose flour
Vegetable stock
Half and half
