Hey FamBam!
I was inspired to make this soup while browsing the world wide web. When I saw it, I couldn't believe that I hadn't thought to make it sooner. I absolutely LOVE broccoli cheddar soup. Before we began eating strictly plant-based, I would always buy the broccoli cheddar soup from Costco, and have to eat the entire two containers alone because my husband doesn't like cheese. I still had to eat this plant-based version alone because vegan cheese tastes so much like real cheese, so my husband still won't eat it. He has no clue what he's missing!
