My husband loves Panera broccoli Cheddar soup but it's so expensive now so we set out to create our perfect version at home. Here is what we came up with. Serve topped with cheese.

Ingredients

  • butter: 1 Tbsp
  • onion: 0.5 piece (chopped)
  • butter: 0.25 cup (melted)
  • flour: 0.25 cup
  • milk: 2 cups
  • chicken stock: 2 cups
  • ½ cups coarsely chopped broccoli florets: 1 piece
  • carrots: 1 cup (matchstick-cut)
  • stalk celery: 1 piece (sliced)
  • ½ cups shredded sharp Cheddar cheese: 2 piece
  • salt and ground black pepper: (to taste)

  2. Whisk 1/4 cup melted butter and flour together in a large saucepan over medium-low heat. Continue to whisk and cook, adding 1 to 2 tablespoons of milk if necessary to keep the flour from burning, 3 to 4 minutes.
