It’s a High Protein Cheddar Broccoli Soup!
For those craving those traditional fall dishes but watching their waistline I wanted to share this great recipe:
2 small heads broccoli
1 medium onion
1/4 cup butter
28oz Full Fat cottage cheese
2.5 cups shredded SHARP cheddar cheese
3-4 tbls. flour for thickness
4 cups chicken stock
2 clove garlic
Salt, black pepper, and white pepper
– yes, they are different
- Blend black pepper (1/2 tablespoon), cottage cheese, and 1 cup chicken stock together.
- Sauté onion and garlic
- Add part of the sautéed onion to cottage mix and blend again.
- Sprinkle flour over the remaining onions and cook for about minute. Add stock if needed.
- Add cottage mix to the pan with the chopped broccoli and remaining stock and cheese.
- Bring to simmer for 8 min. Turn off and cover for 10ish more minutes to let it thicken.
- Season to taste with white pepper and salt
Feel free to add chicken for even more protein 😄
I hope this inspires you for the fall season 🍂🍁

Sounds delish! Could raise the protein even more by using bone broth instead of stock!
