Just toss everything into your crock pot and let it cook on low for 4 to 6 hours. Then process with a hand blender or regular blender in batches until smooth.
This easy crock pot broccoli cheese soup is so simple and deliciously satisfying it’s now part of our regular rotation. According to my calculations each serving has 134 calories and *3 Weight Watchers Points Plus 4 SmartPoints. Enjoy!
I used the following kitchen tools to make this recipe:
- 10 ounces frozen chopped broccoli
- 1 can (10.75 ounces) chicken rice soup (I used Campbell's Healthy Request)
- 1-1/4 cups low sodium chicken broth
- 4 ounces reduced fat Velveeta or American cheese cubed (or your favorite cheese**)
- Ideal Slow Cooker Size: 1-1/2 to 3-Quart
- Place the broccoli, chicken rice soup, chicken broth and cheese in the slow cooker. Stir to combine. Cover and cook on LOW for 4 to 6 hours or until the broccoli is very tender. Carefully process with a hand blender or in a blender in batches until smooth. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
**If you use a cheese other than Velveeta wait and add it just a few minutes before serving.

I LOVE broccoli cheese soup. I try every new recipe I find and this is no exception. It looks really good.
Everyone who has tried it has liked it. Hope you do too Maureen.
Velveeta? Are you kidding? Canned soup? Are you kidding?
I don’t cook from a can or fake cheese. It’s not that much to make things from scratch.
Sorry I don’t like this recipe.
Hi Glenda, I think it’s wonderful that you don’t cook from a can. Unfortunately, not everyone has the know how and/or time to cook everything from scratch 🙂 I believe that cooking from home, even when it means using convenience foods, is preferable to a steady diet of eating out and fast food.

Do you know how many servings it makes?
Hi Barbara, Yes, It makes 4 servings of about 1 cup each. Hope this helps 🙂
I was wondering if you could use fresh broccoli? If using fresh how much would I use? Thanks
Hi Karyn, Yes, you can use fresh broccoli. I would use about 4 cups of chopped fresh broccoli. Hope this helps.
I make this for my family often and we love it. However, if you are eating it for a meal, I would recommend tripling the recipe. The original makes only two adult sized bowls. We like leftovers, and my kids love soup.
Thanks for your suggestions, Adrienne.
