Ingredients

  • 2 Tbsp olive oil
  • 1 Tbsp flour
  • 2 cups broccoli florets (think tree tops, not the trunks)
  • 2 cups low FODMAP chicken broth (we used Campbells)
  • 1 cup lactose free milk
  • ¼ cup cheddar cheese

Instructions

  • In a pot add oil and flour
  • Stir for 2-3 minutes until bubbly and starting to brown
  • Add broth and broccoli heads
  • Simmer until broccoli is soft, stirring regularly as the soup thickens (about 5-10 minutes)
  • Add milk
  • Puree with handheld emulsifier or in a blender, or if you prefer a chunky soup, simmer the soup a bit longer until you can break up the broccoli heads with a fork.
  • You may need to add more water to desired thickness, or salt and pepper to taste.
  • Melt in cheddar cheese & enjoy!

Notes

Other great mix-in options: Add some extra protein with a canned of rinsed chickpeas. Or try adding in some cooked wild rice for an extra chewy texture. Want a bit of extra spice? try adding in a few dashes of Frank's hot sauce for that extra kick.
