Easy Broccoli Cheese Soup

Simple recipe that cooks in about 45 minutes.
1 bag of frozen broccoli florets, cream cheese, garlic powder, chicken granules, velveeta cheese, and a sweet yellow onion.

cook the broccoli in a pot with about half a cup of water, just enough to cook it
4 cups of water and 2 teaspoons of chicken granules, or about 4 cubes
while the water is heating up chop the onion into small pieces
once the water is about to boil, add the onion
add about a teaspoon of garlic powder to the water mixture
once the water is just about boiling, turn it down to low, start to add cream cheese little by little, use about an 8 ounce block or so. make sure to never let the soup boil from here on out!
drain your broccoli and let cool for a few minutes
seperate the florets and chop into small pieces
add the broccoli to the soup
cover and let cook on low for about a half hour
cube the velveeta into small pieces
slowly stir in the velveeta, make sure to constantly stir or it will stick to the bottom and burn
add as much cheese as you like. the soup is done! this is a good soup to freeze for later as well.
