Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions for Crockpot Potato Broccoli Cheddar Soup
  1. Begin by chopping your broccoli florets into small, manageable pieces. Place these vibrant greens at the bottom of your crockpot.
  2. Next, add your shredded carrots and chopped onion on top of the broccoli. Mix in the cream cheese and minced garlic for extra creaminess.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the chicken broth, cornstarch, freshly grated nutmeg, kosher salt, and black pepper. Pour this mixture over the layered vegetables in the crockpot.
  4. Cover the crockpot with its lid and set your cooker to High for 2-3 hours or Low for 6-7 hours.
  5. Once cooking time is up, reduce the heat to Low. Stir in the milk and shredded cheddar cheese.
