Chicken Broccoli Cheddar Soup With Aneto Broth
The weather is finally cooling down in Chicago, so I can finally say that it’s soup season. We love cooking up a huge pot of soup on a Sunday and having a bowl throughout the week for a quick lunch. We love traditional Broccoli Cheddar Soup, but adding chicken is a great way to add in some protein and make it a little more filling. You’ll love this Chicken Broccoli Cheddar Soup!
For the base of this soup, we used Aneto Broth. If you haven’t heard of Aneto Broth before, it’s an all natural broth that’s packed with flavor and nutrients. We’ve tried all of their broths now, and we exclusively keep their brand in our pantry.
