Creamy Cheesy Broccoli Soup

I confess that soup is a weakness of mine. From our creamy Macaroni and Cheese Soup to the classic upscale Slow Cooker Guinness French Onion Soup, I am always a fan. I love sitting down to a warm bowl of soup after a long day, and even more love that this broccoli soup is a perfect option for lunches. With such a simple recipe, this will be a favorite for your family.

I love the idea of using a dutch oven to make this recipe. It is actually one of my favorite kitchen tools. A dutch oven is a great, beautiful, and functional pot for use on the stovetop, in the oven, and straight to the table. Of course, I am going to want fewer dishes.

So, making this broccoli soup in a pretty dutch oven, then sitting in the oven on warm until dinner time, is ideal. I can bring it directly to the table to serve easily.
