Broccoli Cheese Chowder

Fall = Soup, Stew, Chili, or Chowder. I love that soups are one pot, belly-warming dinners that come together in like 30 minutes. This one is nice & thick & filling.

I made my favorite Garlic Cheese Biscuits to eat with these b/c they are fast to put together & they tasted great with the chowder. I like this chowder pureed too b/c it sneaks veggies in my kids where most of the time they don’t touch them.
