I LOVE Cream Soups. But this one is the hub's favorite so I make it a lot. It reminds me of the Cream of Broccoli Soup from Kneaders, a wonderful sandwich shop in Utah.

Here is my recipe for Cheesy ( Creamy Broccoli Soup like Kneaders )
2 cups of frozen broccoli florets
1/2 pint cream
1/2 cube butter ( use it to fry up onions with some olive oil )
1/2 medium onion ( or more diced )
2 stalks celery finely diced
2 cups milk
A cup or so of water added ( I just add till I like the consistency )
2-3 tablespoons flour
1/2 to 3/4 cup mashed potato flakes to thicken
1/2 cup finely grated cheese of your choice
3 bacon pieces microwaved and crumbled crispy
1/2 teaspoon lemon pepper
1/2 teaspoon Johnny's Season Salt
1/4 teaspoon garlic salt
pepper to taste

I start all my soups by dicing the onion up in a fry pan with a little olive oil mixed with some butter. Then when they are caramelized I add the flour and a little milk to make a roux or a flour gravy....
