Notes
✅ Use frozen vegetables: I use frozen broccoli, onions and even garlic to make this even easier because… no chopping!
✅ Make in the slow cooker: You make this in the slow cooker if you prefer for a real hands‑off approach. See the instructions in the recipe below.
- Broccoli – You can use fresh or frozen
- Onion – Again, fresh or frozen is fine
- Garlic – However you use garlic (frozen, fresh or jar etc)
- Stock – You can use vegetable or chicken stock in this recipe, depending on your preference. If you like a thinner soup, add slightly more, or less for a thicker heartier version. I like Marigold Boullion Powder.
- Milk– Semi-skimmed or whole milk is fine
- Stilton cheese – This usually comes in a 200g/7oz block, so use about 160g/6oz for the soup, and 40g/1.5oz can be grated and shared on top of each portion
- Season– Don’t forget to add plenty of salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
In the fridge This can be cooked and kept in an airtight container for 3 days in the fridge.
This is a perfect make‑ahead or batch cook recipe. It just needs reheating on the hob until warmed through before serving.
In the freezer You can also freeze the soup in a well sealed container for 3 months. You should defrost overnight in the fridge and reheat thoroughly OR reheat from frozen in a saucepan or in the microwave. Freeze it into single portions for a quick grab‑and‑go meal!
