    I made this last night – and it is amazing! I made adjustments – used real garlic, pureed the soup, and used aged extra sharp cheese (I also used homemade stock). I’m not a fan of broccoli cheese soup – but I loved this! Thank you for sharing this.

    Hi,
    I hope you don’t mind me saving this recipe because I definitely want to try it ASAP! I have a bit of confusion about your instructions.. You said:

    In a large pot over medium high heat, cook Chicken stock, all but 1 cup of broccoli, onion, garlic and onion powder, and salt until veggies are tender.

    Are you saying to add all veggies except one cup of broccoli? Or one cup of each veggie?

    Is chicken stock the same as chicken broth?
