This cheesy broccoli soup is full of veggies and flavor! It has the perfect amount of richness and creaminess, while staying silky and light. It’s the perfect soup for chilly evenings!

1-2 celery sticks, finely chopped 

1 Tablespoon garlic, minced 

4 cups chicken broth 

2 large baking potatoes, peeled and chopped

1 Tablespoon flour (I used gluten free) 

1/2 cup water

2/3 cup milk (could substitute light coconut milk) 

2 cups broccoli, chopped 

2 cups cheddar cheese, shredded

Handful of your favorite Hamama Microgreens, for garnish (I used broccoli) 

1. Melt the butter in a large soup pot.
2. Add onions, carrots, and celery and saute over medium heat until tender.
3. Add garlic and cook 1 or 2 additional minutes.
