My family enjoyed this recipe, it was creamy and tasty! I poured the soup into blender, little by little to mix it up. I also prepped all my ingredients earlier in the day to make dinner time easy. Broccoli soup has also been a weekend dish around here and this is my new favorite recipe!
I haven’t made this yet because I’m one with high blood pressure and heart surgery so I was wondering if you could let me know if it’s high in sodium it doesn’t list the sodium count.
Hi Deborah! I stopped including sodium info because it can vary so much depending upon what products you used, and I found a lot of conflicting info online, so ultimately I didn’t feel comfortable publishing it because sometimes it wasn’t even in the ballpark. If you’d like to calculate it yourself, there are lots of free tools online (myfitnesspal.com is popular). I hope that helps!
I asked my five year old daughter what we should write for this recipe review and she said, “I love you!” as she was finishing her third bowl. Thank you for helping me keep my little one healthy this winter. I made this recipe in the Instant Pot – this one appealed to me more than your actual Instant Pot one. I used chicken bone broth, 3 big carrots, almost a whole bag of Costco broccoli florets, and a half a head of cauliflower. I can’t believe how much flavor just 4oz of cheese adds to that enormous amount of vegetables! Good idea using cornstarch too. Definitely a keeper!
Thank you for this absolutely amazing broccoli cheddar soup! Our whole family loves it, even the pickier eaters. This soup has made our “The One” recipe list. Thank you!
This is delicious! Perfect comfort food. I have struggled to find a broccoli cheddar soup recipe that I like, but I will definitely be making this again!
We had mixed reviews at our house. Some thought it was too “tangy” others thought it was good. I will make this again and may tweak it to figure out the tanginess.
Hi Paige, maybe it was the brand of extra sharp cheese or dijon mustard used? Those are the only two ingredients that could possibly cause it to be “tangy”. Sorry to hear it wasn’t to the taste of some of your household. Myself (and others) have enjoyed so I hope it would of been a hit everyone!
My family loved this soup! I was skeptical about the cauliflower, but it added a creaminess and didn’t change the taste much. Will definitely make again.
I made the broccoli cheese soup for dinner tonight. Oh my goodness, it was souper (get it) easy and absolutely delicious. This will be one of my new favorites
This is a rich tasting soup without the overstuffed feeling afterward. The flavors are blended just perfectly. I added crumbled bacon on top with a cornbread on the side. The cruciferous flavors were on point and paired perfectly with the cheddar and parm cheese flavors. This was so simple to make.
Easy delicious soup! I didn’t even have to adjust the seasoning at the end. It’s that flavorful! What a great way to pack in all those healthy veggies!
I like all the veg in the soup. I used 1 cup of half and half and blended only half the soup, leaving a chunkier texture. Cheese on top seals the deal! Yum!
Made this last night in an effort to have a go-to lunch grab for the week to make things easy while momming the littles. It is so delish and filling! Love all the veggies inside and the texture that came out. 10/10 recommend. Plus, we had some sourdough on hand to pair with it. Chef’s kiss! 👩🏻🍳👌
I’ve never made (or eaten…) broccoli cheddar soup, but my husband wanted it so I gave this a try! Used frozen broccoli and cauliflower for ease and heavy cream instead of milk because I had some to use. Thanks for a tasty recipe, Erin!
I made the broccoli cheddar soup this morning before church and kept it warm in the crockpot. My husband took seconds and said that I could make it again. I prefer a milk base rather than so much chicken broth, but it was good. I’ve never mixed cornstarch with cheese before, but it worked well!
My family loves a great soup and this one is exceptional! It is super creamy and hearty and I love all the healthy ingredients. We enjoyed it with sourdough breadsticks and salad. A winner for sure!
I really enjoyed this soup! I blended it pretty uniformly but next time will leave a few more broccoli pieces whole. It was creamy but not too much so, and the broccoli flavor really came through. Delicious!

Best comment EVER! Thank you so much! Glad it worked for you in the Instant Pot!!
Delicious! I forgot to get broth! So I just used water and added a little more s&p. Still so so good. Picky 7 year-old loved it too!
Love it! Thanks Leigh!

Great to hear, thank you Adria!
Made a great supper! Had to sub more broccoli for the cauliflower as I have a household member that can’t have cauliflower. Was still delicious. :)
Glad it worked! Thanks Carrie!
Delicious taste and fills you up surprisingly well. The partner loved this too definitely adding to our menu at home haha
