Broccoli cheese soup is one of my favorites. I've had a horrible head cold for a week and was really craving some soup. Put this in the crock on high and took a nap. Woke up and had wonderful soup! I think I'm feeling better already!
Love this recipe and so does my family! I did add a little milk because it tends to thicken quickly!
