Broccoli and Three Cheese Soup--Dana

1 qt chicken broth (or vegetable)
2 cups milk
2 10 oz bags of frozen broccoli florets
1/2 diced white onion
1/2 t black pepper
1/2 t kosher salt
1/2 t ground nutmeg
1 cup each of three different cheeses

Mince the onion into really small pieces. The onions are going to soften in the milk and the broth, and need to be quite small so you don't crunch on onion pieces when the soup is complete.
Add the onion to your crockpot, and top with the milk, broth, and spices. Stir in the two frozen bags of broccoli.
Cook on low for 7-9 hours, or on high for 4-6. The broth is done when the onion is cooked nicely.
20 minutes or so before serving, shred all the cheese you are going to use, and stir it in. The cheese will be stringy and will stick to the broccoli florets---you can use an immersion blender and blend it a little bit.
For cooking club: Thaw until you can get it into your crockpot and then cook as the recipe instructs.
Serve with a salad and fresh bread!
