Broccoli Cheddar Soup

Today marks the first of the month for me. This month I'm doing soups and stews all month. These can be made in the pressure cooker, the slow cooker, or on the stove. Whichever is easiest for you to do please do. Tonight we kicked it off with broccoli cheddar soup.

Broccoli Cheddar Soup

• 4 Tbs butter, chunked 
• 1 Tsp salt 
• 6 Cups broccoli florets 
• 1/4 Tsp baking soda 
• 3 Cups vegetable stock 
• 1 Cup cheddar, shredded 
• 1/2 Cup heavy cream 
• 2 Tbs basil

Combine all together and cook until broccoli is tender. You are able to use an immersion blender to smooth this soup out or keep it chunky like I did. If you're cooking in a pressure cooker cook about 15 minutes. 

The picture doesn't really show much so tomorrow i'll have to take a picture of the spoon so you can see all the ingredients. This soup was creamy and broccoli is by far my favorite so i'm a little bias. Tomorrow we will be having a loaded baked potato soup. See you tomorrow!
