Creamy Broccoli Soup

Delicious, warm and guaranteed to make cold fingers toasty again. This soup is hearty thanks to chopped broccoli and velvety thanks to our combination of cheeses.

I have a husband and six children who all like broccoli soup a lot, but they didn't like this one. It had too much cheese and I never thought I'd say that!

The Soup was fantastic. I didn't like the nutmeg in the recipe, just a personal preference. So I didn't use it.

THE SOUP WAS VERY GOOD HOWEVER I DID ADD 4OZ MORE OF THE CHEESE BECAUSE THE NUTMEG TASTE WAS JUST A LITTLE STRONG FOR MY FAMILY AND IT DID MAKE THE SOUP A LITTLE THICKER.
