Low-FODMAP Broccoli and Cheddar Soup
Like Panera Bread's version but without the stomachache.
Ingredients
- 3 tbsp butter
- 2 tbsp gluten free all purpose flour
- 1 small jalapeno diced
- 1 cup milk of choice almond works
- 2 cup chicken or vegetable stock
- 2 cup broccoli florets
- 1.5 cup cheddar cheese
- dash of nutmeg
- salt and pepper
Instructions
- Melt the butter in a pot and add in the diced jalapeno. Once it is soft, whisk in the flour.
- Slowly add in the milk, whisking until smooth and incorporated.
- Add stock or water and bring to a simmer. Add in salt, pepper, and nutmeg. Reduce heat to medium. Add broccoli and cover.
- Allow to simmer until broccoli is soft - about 20 minutes.
- Blend soup together using either an immersion (stick) blender or carefully add it to a high powered blender. Return to pot and stir in cheese. Adjust liquids and spices as needed for desired consistency!
Notes
I topped this delicious soup with some leftover roasted chicken, homemade sourdough croutons, and goat cheese! It is great as is or paired with a grilled cheese!
