We are huge soup lovers this time of year, especially this Slow Cooker 3 Cheese Broccoli Soup Recipe! It’s simple, everyone loves it (even my picky eaters), and it’s made in the slow cooker, so it takes just a few minutes to throw together.
Whenever I order soup at a restaurant, I go for the broccoli and cheese soup. I thought I would put my slow cooker to the test and make my own broccoli cheese soup. After a few tries to get this recipe just right, the third time was the charm.
