Directions

Melt butter in a large pot over medium-high heat. Cook and stir onion in the melted butter until tender, 5 to 7 minutes.
Sprinkle flour over the onion; continue cooking 2 to 3 minutes, stirring often.
Pour chicken broth and milk into the pot; reduce heat to medium, and bring the mixture to a simmer. Stir shredded Gouda cheese into the liquid; cook and stir until the cheese melts completely.
Place broccoli into a microwave-safe dish; cook in the microwave until softened, 3 to 5 minutes.
Stir broccoli into the soup.
Season the soup with nutmeg, salt, and black pepper to serve.

"This soup is excellent! I had some Gouda I needed to use and this popped up. I used a package of "steam in the bag" broccoli florets, cooked according to package directions, and added it at the end...." See more I finished the soup and then it was about an hour or so before we ate. Unfortunately, it had curdled somewhat by the time we ate which made for a funky texture. Next time I will know to serve immediately. I did use fresh grated nutmeg!"

"Very good soup! Rich and yummy, certainly NOT bland! I did use freshly grated nutmeg-it makes a big difference. My only problem was I wish I had doubled the broccoli as I felt it needed more...." See more"
