Cook With Cream Of Broccoli Soup

You have several options when cooking with cream of broccoli soup


Cream of broccoli soup is an especially good ingredient if you're making cream sauces, poultry dishes or seafood dishes. For example, cream of broccoli soup makes a great nacho cheese sauce with a hint of vegetable flavor.


Instructions


1. Use cream of broccoli soup as a sauce for poultry and seafood dishes. Season boneless chicken breasts with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, paprika and crushed red pepper. Pour a can of cream of broccoli soup in a medium bowl and add one-fourth cup of broth or water. Mix thoroughly and pour the soup mixture on top of the breasts. Bake in a 350 degree-preheated oven for 30 minutes and serve.


2. If making baked macaroni and cheese, combine two cans of cream of broccoli soup, a half-cup of cheddar cheese, a half-cup of Monterey Jack cheese, a teaspoon of nutmeg, a teaspoon of dry mustard, three tablespoons of butter, a fourth cup of heavy cream, salt and black pepper in a medium saucepan. Cook over medium-low heat for 20-30 minutes or until the sauce is thickened. Pour sauce over a pound of cooked macaroni and top with extra cheddar cheese. Bake in a 350 degree-preheated oven for 20 minutes.


3. Create a new cream soup by taking two large cans of cream of broccoli soup and pouring them into a large pot. Add a cup of chicken stock, vegetables, salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, a dash of cayenne powder and a half-cup of heavy cream. Cook soup over medium-low heat for about 45 minutes and add oysters during the last five minutes of cooking.
