Cheats simple broccoli and cauliflower soup
23 min
This soup is made with jarred four cheese sauce soup from the store so it is easy but tastes very indulgent. It's perfect for a lunchtime dish of lovely warmth or as a perfect starter. Using a wand hand-blender works well to make this or you could use a potato masher implement to 'mash' the finished cooked vegetables into the soup and you'll have a chunkier soup.
