Cheesy Chicken Broccoli Soup
(I doubled this recipe)
- 1/4 Cup Minced Onion
- 3 Cups of frozen Broccoli
- 3 Cups of chicken broth
- 1/2 Cup of lite sour cream
- 1/4 Cup of cream
- 12oz (1 1/2 cups) of Shredded Cheddar
- 1-2 cooked chicken breasts-cut up (I added more)
- 2 oz lite Cream Cheese
- 2 T. butter
- sprinkle of thickener or carbquick
- salt and pepper to taste
In a large pot, throw all ingredients in except the chicken and thickener. Heat on medium.
While pot is simmering, dice and cook chicken in frying pan.
Add chicken to pot and bring to boil, stirring occasionally. Sprinkle thickener if necessary.

I like to go to the gym on Monday at 5:30, so this was the perfect dinner for us. I threw it all together before I left and then put it in the Crock Pot to “simmer” until I got back.
It was a very yummy and flavorful soup! I made a ton because I like to freeze leftovers so I’ll have “low-carb” options to eat! Most of my kids enjoyed the soup as well.
