Broccoli Cheese Soup
Soup is good food, but Broccoli Cheese Soup is great food! The concept of having your meal in an edible bowl can really be magical for a young eater, as I found out when I presented my kids each with their own bread bowls filled to the brim with soup.

Ingredients
Instructions
- Step 1
In a large pot over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the onion and cook 3 to 4 minutes.
- Step 2
Sprinkle the flour on top of the onion, and use a whisk to work in the flour. Once it’s combined, cook the onion-flour mixture for 2 to 3 minutes.
- Step 3
Add the milk and half-and-half, whisking constantly until combined.
- Step 4
Sprinkle in the salt, pepper, and nutmeg.
- Step 5
Stir the broccoli florets into the soup. Cover the pot and reduce the heat to low, then simmer the soup until it’s thickened and the broccoli is tender, 20 to 25 minutes.
- Step 6
Stir in the chicken broth and check the consistency. The soup should be thick, but if it still seems too thick, splash in a little more broth.
- Step 7
Add the cheese and stir until melted. Serve the soup in bread bowls.
