Ingredients

6 cup Broccoli Florets, Raw

Cilantro, raw - to taste - I use most of a whole bunch

3 cup (8 fl oz) Chicken Broth

1.5 cup Buttermilk, lowfat

2 cup Kraft Finely Shredded Sharp Cheddar Cheese

Tips

This is a very flexible recipe. If you want it thicker, use less liquid or thinner use more - of your choice of chicken broth or buttermilk.
I used a bag of broccoli florets that were already chopped up which helped with both the prep time as well as the clean up.
Try with a variety of cheeses as well.

Directions

steam broccoli in 1 cup of the chicken broth for 20 minutes.
Add the rest of the chicken broth and lightly chopped cilantro to the pot.
Use an immersion blender to get the biggest chunks blended, then add buttermilk and blend again to the texture you prefer.
Add cheeses and salt & pepper to taste.

Enjoy!!
