Ingredients
Instructions
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Submerge the sealed bag of soup in the boiling water and cook for 20 minutes. Carefully remove the bag (it will be very hot). Cut one corner with scissors and pour the soup into a serving bowl.
- Alternative microwave method: Cut one corner of the bag and pour the soup into a microwave-safe container. Do not microwave in the original cup. Cover loosely with microwave-safe plastic wrap or a paper towel. Microwave on high for 5-6 minutes, stirring halfway through. Be careful-the container and soup will be very hot.
Recipe Tips
For an extra creamy texture, stir in a splash of milk or cream after heating.
Garnish with extra shredded cheddar cheese and a pinch of black pepper before serving.
If you prefer a chunkier soup, add some steamed broccoli florets after heating.
