Panera Bread Broccoli Cheese Soup
I like to enjoy Panera Bread Broccoli Cheese Soup as it is served at Panera, in a bread bowl.
You can make your own bread bowls at home and there are plenty of good recipes on the web for doing so.
I tried making bread bowls once upon a long ago time — and now I just stop by the bakery and pick up a couple.
I strongly suggest you save yourself the trouble and do the same.
Hey, those people are professionals. Let them do what they do.

Is this recipe diabetic appropriate? It sounds delish
April 11, 2013 @ 6:01 pm
@phyl earle: Phyl. I’m not qualified to answer that. I’m not diabetic and have never had to watch what I eat. Just how much I eat. 😉
Good luck — and if you find out, please leave a comment here for others.

i used dunkin donuts cream because i didnt have regular half and half. i also used more than a pound of broccoli and about 2 cups of shredded carrots. i did not use the nutmeg. i did use the immerson blender lightly because the broccoli pieces were a tad big. it was really good.there was enough for 4 bowls.saving this recipe and will make again!!
