My husband Eric and I eat dinner together to spend some quality time together. This cheesy soup is proof that soup doesn't need to be made in big batches to be good.—Cheryl McRae, West Valley, Utah

This turned out to be the best cheesy broccoli soup that I have ever had. My mother said the same thing! It was very easy to make and I have made it over and over again.
