I had been having a craving for broccoli soup since yesterday. Unfortunately, I had never made broccoli soup and I was out of milk. When I got the milk today, I set about creating a broccoli soup recipe. I decided to make a white sauce and add grated cheese,cooked broccoli and a few other things to it. It turned out rather well.
