Notes
Fresh or frozen broccoli both work fine.
I use unsalted chicken bone broth or unsalted chicken broth. You can use bouillon here but be careful of the amount of additional salt you add into the dish.
I use mild cheddar cheese. Sharp and age have less moisture and can sometimes be grainy. If you want to add some spice to your soup, you can substitute the cheese with jalapeno or habanero cheese.
