Cream of Broccoli and Chicken Soup

  • 1 T Olive Oil
    1 onion, chopped
    8 oz neufchatel cream cheese
    1 14.5 oz can chicken broth
    3 cups broccoli, chopped
    1 cup low fat cheddar cheese, grated
    1 cup cooked chicken, chopped
    2/3 cup fat free half and half

    In large saucepan, heat oil and add onions. Cook until translucent. Add broth and heat until boiling, stirring. Add chicken and broccoli; cook until broccoli is tender, about 5 minutes. Add cheeses and half and half. Reduce heat and cook another minute, stirring, to melt and incorporate cheese.

    4 servings

    Note: I have used fat free evaporated milk in place of the half and half.
  • I tired this tonight and it was great! I think it was more than just 4 servings though. I had about half a bowl and now I am stuffed. Thanks for the recipe!
  • Sounds too good to be true!!
