Instructions
Begin by prepping your veggies: peel and cube the potatoes, thinly slice the onion, and mince your garlic.
In your crockpot, layer the frozen broccoli, cubed potatoes, sliced onion, and minced garlic.
Add the cream of chicken soup, cream of mushroom soup, and chicken broth over the vegetables.
Gently stir in the butter and the flour. Mix everything together until well combined.
Cover and cook on low for 5-6 hours (or on high for 3-4 hours), until the potatoes are fork-tender and the broccoli is very soft.
About 30 minutes before serving, carefully stir in the cubed Velveeta cheese. Continue cooking, covered, until the cheese is fully melted and the soup is creamy.
Taste and adjust with salt and pepper. For a smoother consistency, you can blend a portion of the soup using an immersion blender (optional).
Serve hot, with your favorite toppings!
Notes
This soup pairs beautifully with crusty artisan bread, garlic baguette, or a fresh salad.
