What is broccoli cheddar soup made of?

[Alfredo]

Hey folks, I've been craving some homemade broccoli cheddar soup and started wondering about the traditional ingredients that make it so comforting. It's usually a blend of fresh broccoli, sharp cheddar cheese, and a creamy base, often thickened with flour or a roux and enriched with chicken or vegetable broth . Curious to see if anyone's added their own twist or found alternatives to make it lighter or even more flavorful. What's your secret ingredient or method?

Hey there! With fresh broccoli, sharp cheddar cheese, and that creamy base, it's a real treat. Some thicken it with flour or a roux, but lighter options like cornstarch or potatoes work too. And for a little extra flavor, a pinch of nutmeg or a splash of hot sauce does wonders! What's your favorite twist for broccoli cheddar soup?

A splash of white wine or a pinch of nutmeg can elevate the flavor; for a lighter twist, try Greek yogurt instead of cream!
