Cook's Notes

To make this a little creamier substitute 1/2 cup milk with 1/2 cup cream and add it at the very end. Delish!

NOTE: The broccoli soup packets are usually found in the produce section.

From: Carrie J. Comment: I also like to add potatoes to this soup. I give them a large dice, steam them in the microwave for about 5 minutes and add them in with the broccoli.
