- 1/2 cup cream cheese
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/2 tsp onion powder

Instructions
- Cook the Broccoli – In a large pot, combine broccoli, chicken broth, minced garlic, and onion powder. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 10 minutes until broccoli is tender.
- Blend for Smoothness – Use an immersion blender to puree the soup to your desired consistency. Leave some broccoli pieces whole for a chunkier texture.

- Season & Serve – Add salt and pepper to taste. Serve warm and enjoy!
Notes
- Make It Chunkier – Blend only part of the soup for a thicker, more textured consistency.
