I love this easy cheddar broccoli soup! It’s super simple and really quick to make! It is low carb too if that is what you are looking for. If you aren’t looking to cut carbs, it’s still delicious and you can add some bread along side of this soup for a hearty and delicious dinner! My overnight rolls RECIPE HERE would be great with this!

I was on the phone with my mom the last time I made this soup. She knew I was starting dinner and cooking while we talked. I finished the soup while we were still talking. I tasted some and I said “Yum! Mom this soup is so good!”. She said, “What?!? It’s done already?!?” She was shocked at how fast it was done! It’s seriously that quick, easy and delicious!
