Broccoli Cheddar Soup in a Bread Bowl

I would like for you to give to me the recipe for your cheese porridge on a bread

Yummy 🤤

**Ingredients**

* 2½ cups milk
* 8 oz mild cheddar, shredded
* 8 oz sharp cheddar, shredded

1. Melt butter over medium heat. Sweat onion, celery, and leek until soft. Add carrots and cook 2 min.
2. Stir in flour and cook 1–2 min.
3. Slowly whisk in stock, then milk. Simmer until slightly thickened.
4. Add broccoli and simmer 10–12 min until tender.
5. Blend about half the soup (optional but recommended).
6. Reduce heat to low and stir in cheese gradually. Do **not** boil.
7. Season to taste.

That bowl is AT ITS LIMIT

Whilst I would love to eat it, it is not foodporn – looks like cob-soup vomit.

This feels like something you eat on a cold day and instantly relax. Total comfort in a bowl.

That looks amazing!
