Mmmm yes it sounds delicious ... I love cheese and I like brocolli too so a good combination. Go on, try it ... live a little. If you don't like it you can always throw it away or give it to someone else but I'm sure you'll be a big fan once you've gone for it. :)

Why have you not tried it before now? You are missing out on a delicious bowl of soup! It's delicious when the broccoli is nice and tender and the cheese is not too overpowering....makes me want some right now!!
Panera Bread chains have a good one!
Quiznos version isn't bad either.

Yes , cheese and broccoli soup is very good. I remember going to a small off the beaten path restaurant and they served a peasants lunch that consisted of fresh soup, salad and fresh baked bread...and the cheese and broccolli was my favorite.
