Here is how you make Broccoli Cheese + Potato Soup:

Chop onion, carrot, celery, garlic in a chopper or mini food processor. In a large soup pot, melt margarine. Add chopped vegetables and saut? on low heat until soft, about 5 minutes. Add flour, salt and pepper to the pot and stir until smooth.Add chicken broth, milk and potatoes and set heat to high until it comes to a boil, then cover and cook on low until potatoes are soft, about 10-15 minutes.Add broccoli florets, parmesan cheese, and stir well. Adjust salt and pepper to taste. Cook uncovered until broccoli is cooked, about 5 minutes. Add cheddar and American cheese, stir well and remove from heat.Using an immersion blender, quickly blend part of the soup for a quick second or two. If you don't have an immersion blender, remove about 1-2 cups of potatoes and broccoli, place it in your chopper, then add it back to the soup. This helps thicken it a bit.
