    Instructions were confusing. How long to simmer again? 🤔

    Eh. Just didn’t do it for me. Taste is kinda bland. Maybe need more spices?

      I totally get what you mean! I added a pinch of cayenne pepper and some thyme and it really kicked it up a notch. Maybe try that next time!

    Easy to follow but what’s with the heavy cream? Can’t we just use coconut milk? Much healthier.

    This was too bland for my taste. I ended up adding some spices but it still didn’t hit the spot. 🙁

      Looks easy, but are you sure it’s really that good? I mean, I’ve made soups that didn’t turn out at all like I thought.

    I didn’t have heavy cream, used milk instead. Good enough!

    Easy to make but doesn’t taste like much. Could use more seasoning.

      More seasoning??? I think it’s perfect as is! Sometimes simple is best. Why complicate things?

      I totally get what you mean! A little more garlic or some spices could really elevate the flavors. I usually add some red pepper flakes for a kick.

    Tastes fine, but I think it needs more flavor… maybe some cheese or herbs? Just a suggestion!

    Love how simple this is. Perfect for dinner! But I wish I could have it thicker.

    1. 4 stars
      You could try adding more cream or even some potato to thicken it up! Glad you like the recipe!

    Broccoli and cauliflower in soup? Weird combo, but I actually liked it! Who knew?

  19. 1 star
    I’m not a fan of blending my food. I just couldn’t get past the texture of a pureed soup. Sorry!

    Too rich with the heavy cream. Maybe try coconut milk next time? Would cut the fat, I think.

    1. User avatar rueben.moen says:

      I totally agree! I prefer coconut milk too, it gives a nice sweetness. Maybe I’ll try it your way next time!

    Broccoli soup? No thanks, I just like broccoli plain.

    I was skeptical at first, but this turned out great! Just used almond milk instead of heavy cream.

    1. User avatar joey.stracke1988 says:

      Heavy cream makes it rich tho, almond milk is like water! 🤷‍♂️ But if you liked it, who am I to judge?

    2. User avatar vivian.konopelski84 says:

      I’m glad to hear it turned out great! Almond milk is a nice touch. Did you add any spices or extra flavoring?

    Why does it say ‘vegetable broth’? What even is that? I just used water.

    Meh. It’s just soup, nothin speical. Just a bunch of veggie mush. 😒

      I totally disagree! This bisque is super creamy and delicious! Give it another try! 😋

    Was skeptical at first, but tasted great! I added some chili flakes for a kick. Yum!

      Chili flakes? That’s a genius idea! I never thought about adding spice to soup. I’ll try it next time! Thanks for the tip!

    Eh, didn’t turn out like I expected. My soup was too watery. I guess I used too much broth?

    I didn’t like it. The kids wouldn’t even take a bite. Maybe too much broccoli?

    I tried this recipe but I wasn’t sure about the heavy cream… too rich for my taste! Next time I’ll skip it.

    Yum! I added some chili flakes for a kick. Definitely making this again!

      I don’t know, adding chili to a bisque? Seems like a weird combo to me. But hey, to each their own.

  32. User avatar tissues_with_issues says:

    Nah, I prefer my veggies crunchy. This was too mushy for me. 😕

  33. User avatar ammie.kessler says:

    This soup was too bland. Should’ve added cheese or sumthin. Not very exciting.

  34. User avatar classie.crist says:

    I don’t think cauliflower and broccoli go together. Not for me.
