  • natalie

  • denise

    can’t wait to try this — yum

  • cadi

    Do you need to add water to this?

    • Budget Savvy Diva

      Nope

  • Chantele

    How do you make your own cheese soup? I’m going to try this today for a lenten soup luncheon an d I don’t have cheese soup.

  • Ruthie

    Can I put the broccoli in frozen? Or do you think it will be too watery?

  • Nick

    amg suchhh a great recipe!

    • Budget Savvy Diva

      Glad you like it 🙂

    […] searched for a crock pot version that could be made on set without a kitchen. Luckily I found this recipe(https://www.budgetsavvydiva.com/2012/02/crock-pot-broccoli-cheese-soup/). I am so excited to make […]

  • natalie

    You don’t say what size slow cooker to use… 1.5 qt, 3 qt, 4qt, or 6 qt?

  • Rebecca

    What is the serving size? I count my calories and it says this serves six but I need to know how much I can eat? : )

    • Linda

      Either measure amount you have when finished and divide by 6 or put into six bowls until gone.

  • Jessica

    I have this in my crock pot now. I’m worried I may have done it wrong. I wasn’t clear on whether or not I was supposed to add the milk to the cheddar soup like it asks you on the back of the can or not. I added the milk, but just subtracted an evaporated milk can. Hopefully it turns out okay, I’ve been looking forward to trying this.

    • Erin

      This is my same question. Do I add the 1 can of milk per can of cheddar cheese soup, in addition to the evaporated milk?

      • Jacki

        What is the response to this?? Making this tonight

      • Sherrill L. Van Valkenburgh

        NO! Two cans of soup go in, two cans of milk go in. Soup cans are always 10 3/4 oz., evaporated milk is in 12 oz. cans. That’s why the different numbers.

  • ivonne

    do you put in the broccoli frozen or thawed out?

    • Budget Savvy Diva

      I put it in frozen

  • amber m

    I work full time and go to school full time. So in order to help my husband out I will surprise him with dinner already done.
    So I made this soup first thing this morning so by the time he gets home dinner is done.
    Hope he likes it Il let you know how it goes.

  • Kaylin

    OMG this was fantastic and super easy. I’m not a fan of onions so we omitted that and just used onion powder. I ate some the next day on crackers like a dip. My MIL ate 3 bowls as did the rest of us. I made home made croutons and that put it over the top. Thanks for posting this. I’m making it again this weekend since we are due for a snowstorm!!!!! Love crock pot recipes!!!!!! This would be fantastic in a bread bowl or even as a dip. YUMMY!!!!!!

    • Budget Savvy Diva

      I am so glad you liked it 🙂

  • Lisa

    Since I work full time, would it still be good if I leave it in the Crockpot for about 9 hours or will it burn??

    • Budget Savvy Diva

      Make sure it is on low – it should be fine — use a crockpot liner so it does not burn

  • Kim

    I had to put in the broccoli stems. There was no way that I couldn’t have. I bought 2 16oz bags of chopped broccoli. If I picked out all the stems there wouldn’t have been enough broccoli & it would have taken hours to pick them out. Do you buy broccoli tops only? THe soup is real real thick right now (just placed everything in there). I added some cream to it for cooking. I might blend it up later to see if that thins it out. I cannot wait to taste it. 🙂

  • Kristi D.

    Really good! I accidentally only got one 16 oz bag of broccoli. Luckily I also had some fresh so I chopped it up and threw it in. I also used the stems or I wouldn’t have had enough. When the soup was done I just took a potato masher and broke up some of the bigger chunks of broccoli and stems. Made a very tasty and filling soup. For those who asked above: no you don’t put any additional milk in besides the evaporated milk.

  • Thalcomb

    Can this be frozen after? Thinking it would be great for quick meal.

  • michelle

    How much cheddar cheese do you use?

  • nancy

    I’m tryin to make this now and like an idiot i got two small 5 oz cans of evaporated milk can i substitute the rest with milk???? Please let me know this looks so yummy!!!

  • valene gibbs

    this looks easy, and good, I’ll add a few more spices

  • Heather Thiel

    There’s nothing better when you’re sick than broccoli cheese soup!

    (commenting for Quick giveaway 🙂

  • Stephanie Williams

    PIN!!!!!!!

  • Allie Talley

    I literally make this once a month. I love it that much!

  • Casey S

    Someone else asked this but I didn’t see an answer. Does anyone know a substitute for the canned cheddar soup? Would 2 cups of cheese sauce thinned a little work?

  • Julie

    Can you use fresh broccoli? Would you steam it first?

  • kristen

    Do we add any liquid to the crock pot?

  • Danna

    Do not, I repeat, do not cook it longer than the recipe says. Put my crockpot on low and cooked for about 8 hrs while I was at work… I wish I could share a picture. Just nasty. It separated and burned a little. I was hoping to salvage it, but it doesn’t taste like anything, except a little bit of broccoli maybe. 😛 Gonna have to try again on a weekend, I suppose. 🙁
