Broccoli Feta Cheese Soup

Broccoli feta soup is a creamy soup containing all the goodness of broccoli and feta cheese. This delightful soup is a twist away from the traditional blue cheese option as a crumbly feta is used. The feta is deliciously melted in the soup and crumbled on the top for decoration and extra flavour.

Instructions

  • Prepare broccoli and other vegetables:

  • Make soup:
  • 02 Melt butter in a large pan, add onion and chopped garlic. Cook for a few minutes to soften. Add broccoli and cover with enough stock - water with 2 stock cubes added. Season with black pepper. Cover pan with a lid and gently simmer until all is soft and tender.
  • Blend:

Notes

I would recommend to use low sodium feta for this recipe. This soup can be frozen and will keep up to 3 months.
