I don’t know about you but I have way too many small kitchen appliances for the size of my kitchen. There’s so many that I’ve had to start donating the ones that never get used get some real estate back in my pantry and cabinets. Getting the kitchen holiday ready is quite a task!
However, a blender and food processor are kitchen staples. They won’t be going anywhere! Thankfully, Oster makes the Oster Pro® 1200 Plus Food Processor. Yes, a two in one baby! It comes with a 8-cup blender BPA-free TRITAN™ AND a 5-cup food processing bowl.
It features seven speeds, and extra wide 3.5” blade system, and a compact footprint of only 7” x 7” x 14”. With 1200 power watts, it can chop, dice, slice, grind, crush, and cover all your smoothie needs as well.
I can tell you already love this appliance way more than my old ones. It takes up less room and is just as efficient. Even more so. The 6-cup blender glass jar has a nice tight lid to help prevent splatters which my old one could barely do. It has a great seal! AND power!! It did an amazing job pulsing and pureeing this cream of broccoli soup.
This cream of broccoli soup is perfect. Creamy but with chunks. I like to have chunks in my soup, otherwise, I might as well be eating baby food.
Cream of Broccoli Soup brings back memories of my childhood. I was the weird child that loved broccoli when most kids snub their nose at it like mine do. It’s still a favorite of mine to this day!
A thick and flavorful broccoli soup that has some nice chunks of broccoli in it.

I’m a fan of cream of broccoli soup, too. I usually use florets, no stems…because I just don’t like the texture of the stems. But recently I’ve tried a soup with stems that was similar to this and it was really good. I guess the secret is cooking it long enough to really soften those stems, lol.

I really like cream of broccoli soup. I wouldn’t want to have it without the chuncks either.

Cream of broccoli is so good! It’s kind of like orange juice. I want it with pulp because it makes it seem fresher to me.

I love broccoli and love cheese, this sounds like a great idea! Will try it with veggie broth. Didn’t realize it would be easy.
