Chicken Broccoli Alfredo Soup

i like to feature the broccoli to the crock pot at the beginning of the cook time. This outcomes in a ‘mushier’ broccoli, which ends up in my 4 12 months antique not even knowing what he is shoveling into his mouth. I serve a touch steamed broccoli at the facet that may be stirred in for extra texture.

if you need the broccoli to live pretty company, simply add it in the final hour of cooking and it ought to be simply great.  Or you can even steam it separately and simply stir it in right earlier than serving.  you may have the first-class outcomes the usage of pre-shredded Parmesan cheese. upload in a bit at a time and stir properly after each addition to save you all of the cheese from clumping collectively. 

i've already commenced building up my bloodless weather, consolation food recipe series and this soup is currently taking the primary spot.  Alfredo is one of my favorites so making it into a creamy soup most effective regarded to make feel. The Alfredo taste on this soup is quite moderate, however you may amp it up by including in greater Parmesan and even stirring in some butter proper earlier than you devour it.
