Lightened Up Panera-Inspired Broccoli Cheddar Soup
Imagine you just ordered a cozy bowl of broccoli Cheddar soup. It's steaming hot, ultra creamy, and sitting in a big fluffy bread bowl. Now imagine all the calories in that soup. Yikes! Have no fear, this Lightened Up Panera-Inspired Broccoli Cheddar Soup tastes just like the restaurant version, but it's way better for you. This healthy soup recipe cuts back on the fat by using less butter, no cream, and low-sodium chicken broth. You won't miss those ingredients because this soup is still ridiculously smooth, thick, and flavorful. The seasonings are just right. It has a hint of nutmeg and the perfect amount of garlic. So next time you're craving Panera soup, opt for this easy copycat recipe instead.

This is my mom's fav at Panera but I know that it's definitely not a healthy option. Good to know there's a cheaper and healthier alternative for her!

This is by far my favorite kind of soup at Panera! I am so so beyond excited to try this recipe!
