Introduction
Spark had a "featured" recipe today for Broccoli and Cheese soup. I'm a vegetarian, and theirs contained chicken broth. I searched and couldn't find a good vegetarian option on Spark, so decided to share mine. Spark had a "featured" recipe today for Broccoli and Cheese soup.

Thanks for this recipe, it was really good, and so easy to make. I wasn't sure how much was a serving, so I only had a couple cups, but it was very filling. - 10/14/08

I am glad that you enjoyed it. I don't remember how much is in a serving. The next time I make it, I will measure it out. There are 6 of us in our family and I usually just divide it between us.
