Ingredients

  • 1-2 Tablespoons butter
  • 1 onion (diced)
  • 2 medium carrots (diced)
  • 3 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 4 cups chicken stock
  • ¼ cup cornstarch
  • 1 cup milk
  • 2 large potatoes (peeled and chopped into ½-inch cubes)
  • 16 ounces broccoli florets (fresh or frozen)
  • cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon ground pepper

Instructions

  • Melt one to two tablespoons of butter in a skillet over medium-high heat.
  • Sauté the onion in butter until the diced onions begin to soften, about 3 minutes.
  • Add carrots, salt, and pepper and continue to cook for another 3-4 minutes.
  • Then, add garlic and sauté, stirring, for 30 seconds.
  • Next, add the potatoes and chicken broth.
  • Cover and bring to a simmer. Simmer for about ten minutes.
  • Add broccoli and continue simmering until the broccoli and potatoes are tender—about 10 minutes. Potatoes should be fork-tender.
  • In a small bowl, stir cornstarch into milk until smooth. Then, stir into the hot soup.
  • Add in the cheese and stir until melted.
  • Serve and enjoy!

Notes

Let your leftover soup come to room temperature, then store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
