If you use fresh broccoli are there any changes that need to be made to the recipe? Should I steam the broccoli first? Thank you! -

Could you list all the nutrition information & not just net carbs? Some of us doing low carb count total carbs, not net & I like to keep an eye on the fat content too. Thanks.

Could this be frozen? I was given a 3lb block of cream cheese and I want to make a double batch and freeze some.

Delicious soup! Hard to believe it's low-carb. Even if you aren't on a special diet, you will enjoy this soup. It's creamy, tasty and easy to prepare. I was worried that I would end up with little lumps of cream cheese, but by the time it was done cooking, all of the lumps had been boiled out. -
YUMM!! This was a hit with everyone in the family and we will definitely make it again. I doubled the broccoli in it, but other than that didn't change a thing. -
This is the best Broccoli soup I have ever made, besides having my husband confirmed it! I made this soup 3 weeks ago, during this ongoing Covid-19 crisis while we are all home bound. My husband, Stephen, took ONE warm spoonful, he peered over his readers and said, "This is the best cheese soup I have ever tasted!" I said, "You know what's great about this soup?" He kept eating spoonful after spoonful and again peered over his glasses as he lifted his head, I said "This soup has broccoli in it and there's no Velveeta in it ,and it does not take all day to make!" Since then I've made it 2 more times, for my college senior son and his girlfriend who are back home taking their online classes with no graduation ceremony in sight and for our oldest son's family, whose wife also has a new love besides her two young sons, this soup! Many thanks for this totally amazing meal! Also pray for all those affected & died from Covid-19, besides give thanks for all those working diligently to rid this virus & to find a vaccine, and everyone in between. -
