A creamy and comforting Broccoli Potato Soup rich with vegetables and savory bacon, perfect for chilly evenings.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups broccoli florets
  • 2 cups diced potatoes
  • 4 cups vegetable or chicken broth
  • 1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar or your choice)
  • 1/2 cup cooked and crumbled bacon
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon paprika (optional)
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream (optional)

Instructions

  1. In a large pot over medium heat, add a splash of oil or a tablespoon of butter.
  2. Toss in the chopped onion and minced garlic. Sauté until the onion turns translucent, about 4-5 minutes.
  3. Add the diced potatoes and broccoli florets to the pot. Stir to combine.
  4. Pour in the vegetable or chicken broth and increase the heat to bring everything to a boil.
  5. Once boiling, reduce the heat to a simmer. Cook until the potatoes and broccoli are tender, roughly 15-20 minutes.
  6. Using an immersion blender, puree the soup until it reaches your desired consistency.
  7. Return the pot to low heat, then stir in the shredded cheese and crumbled bacon. Mix until melted and well combined.
  8. Season with salt, black pepper, and paprika if desired. If you’d like, add heavy cream, warming the soup gently without boiling.
  9. Ladle the soup into bowls and add your favorite toppings.

Notes

For a vegetarian version, replace bacon with sautéed mushrooms. This soup can be frozen for up to 3 months.
