Broccoli Cheddar Soup

  • Serving 4
  • Preparation 15
  • Cooking 25

Ingredients

  • 1 tbsp (15 mL) L’Ancêtre Organic Butter
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 3 small potatoes, peeled and diced
  • 4 cups (1 L) vegetable broth
  • 1 broccoli, cut into florets
  • 1/2 cup (125 mL) 15% cooking cream
  • 1 block (200 g) L’Ancêtre Organic Medium Light Cheddar, grated
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

A comforting classic made even better with our Organic Medium Light Cheddar. Award-winning at Sélection Caseus, it delivers the rich flavour of an aged cheddar with less fat. Its buttery, nutty notes pair beautifully with broccoli to create a smooth, creamy soup that’s easy enough for any weeknight and perfect for freezing ahead.

Preparation

  1. Melt the butter in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add the onion and cook for 3 to 4 minutes.
  2. Add the potatoes and cook for another 1 to 2 minutes.
  3. Pour in the vegetable broth and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium-low, cover and simmer for 15 minutes.
  4. Add the broccoli and continue cooking for 5 to 8 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender.
  5. Blend the soup until smooth using a blender or an immersion blender.
  6. Return the soup to the saucepan. Stir in the cream and grated cheddar, heating gently until the cheese has completely melted. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

For a make-ahead meal, freeze the soup before adding the cream and cheese. Simply stir them in while reheating for a perfectly creamy finish.
