Broccoli Cheese SoupThis curried Broccoli Cheese Soup is perfect for these last days of winter. Its not spicy at all and even the kiddos will give this one a thumbs up! Broccoli and Cauliflower are staples in our household. We snack on them raw, make salads and my personal favorite, SOUP.  I stumbled into the curry powder addition by accident, but fell in love with the flavor and hope you’ll try this next time you make Broccoli Soup or Broccoli Cauliflower Soup. If you prefer a creamier soup, whir in your blender when done cooking and serve. We prefer the whole florets in ours. Don’t hesitate to toss in a bit of cauliflower if you have it available. You’ll love the flavor combo! Serve in a toasty Bread bowl or a heavy soup bowl.
