1 cup grated melting cheese

- Prepare broccoli cheddar soup as usual, cheese optional.
- Add 1/4 lb. lettuce / spinach leaves. Simmer until wilted. (Pic2)
- Blend until very smooth. (Pic3)
- Served and enjoy. (Pic4)
Serving suggestion:
-
Pour heavy cream in a large serving spoon and dribble it in the soup in a spiral pattern.
This makes the cream stay on top better than pouring directly from a container. - Pull 6 lines from center outward with a knife or the back-end of the spoon to create the spiderweb pattern. (Pic1)
