    Would never use processed cheese like velveeta. Used real cheddar cheese. Could use Jalapeno Jack for a more spicey soup. - 9/15/15

    OMG this is exactly what I was looking for! I wanted to thick, creamy soup that was not filled with fat and this was perfect! My husband couldn't stop eating it! The only changes I did was added 1/4 cups of minced carrot for a little color and sweetness. I also used frozen broccoli! - 1/11/16
