Super yummy! Used unsweetened almond milk instead of 2% milk, lower sodium chicken broth, 1 tsp dried parsley, and changed the onion salt to onion powder. Turns out great every time!

This was very easy to make and tasted wonderful ! I added a small amount of shredded cheddar cheese to the soup but it also tasted great without it too. Thanks for the recipe !

This is the best of the best. I unfortunately did not have fresh parsley, and onion salt, but it was still the best. I put extra sharp cheddar cheese on it at the table. I am ready to make it again and I just made it last Saturday. It was a wonderful Lenten dish. Thank you.

So creamy, luscious for cold weather, and we needed it!! Needed less sodium, but fixed that.

This was absolutely delicious! Even my husband, who doesn't eat broccoli, loved it. I added about 1/2 cup of x-sharp shredded cheddar cheese and about 1/4 cup grated parmesan because I like the broccoli with cheese flavor. Used low-sodium chicken broth and fat-free half and half. Also added 1/2 tsp of zested nutmeg to this and made it really gourmet.

This is an excellent cold weather meal! I used no-fat cream instead of milk, and added about a cup and 1/2 shredded cheddar cheese. Excellent! This one is a keeper.

Sounds good except for the high sodium content. Maybe onion powder instead of onion salt & low sodium broth.

Delicious but would substitute low sodium chicken broth and omit the onion salt, use other spices

Definitely want to make this! I wonder, though, if it might not be a good idea to substitute the cooking water for the chicken broth (or at least part of it)?

868mg of sodium per serving is horrendous! Make your own chicken broth!!!
