Ingredients

Equipment

• Measuring cups and spoons
• Baking sheet

Instructions

Classic Broccoli Cheddar Soup

1. Sauté aromatics: In a large pot, melt butter over medium heat. Add diced onion and minced garlic and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
2. Make the roux: Sprinkle flour over the onions and garlic, stirring constantly for 2 minutes to cook the flour.
3. Add liquids: Gradually whisk in the vegetable broth and milk, ensuring no lumps form.
4. Cook broccoli: Add broccoli florets and bring to a simmer. Cook until broccoli is tender, about 12-15 minutes.
5. Blend (optional): For a smoother texture, use an immersion blender to puree part or all of the soup, or leave chunky if you prefer.
6. Add cheese: Stir in shredded cheddar cheese until melted and smooth. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
7. Serve warm: Ladle into bowls and enjoy with warm breadsticks or a fresh salad.

Garden Salad Mix

1. Prepare vegetables: Wash and dry all salad greens and vegetables thoroughly.
2. Slice and chop: Halve cherry tomatoes, slice cucumbers and onions, and shred carrots.
3. Assemble salad: In a large bowl, combine greens, tomatoes, cucumber, carrots, onions, and olives.
4. Add toppings: Sprinkle croutons on top if using and toss lightly with your favorite dressing just before serving.

Soft Breadsticks

1. Activate yeast: In a bowl, combine warm water, yeast, and sugar. Let sit for 5-10 minutes until foamy.
2. Make dough: In a large mixing bowl, combine flour and salt. Add yeast mixture and olive oil. Stir until a dough forms.
3. Knead dough: Knead dough on a floured surface for 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic. Alternatively, use a stand mixer with a dough hook.
4. First rise: Place dough in a greased bowl, cover with a towel, and let rise in a warm place until doubled in size, about 1 hour.
5. Shape breadsticks: Punch down dough and divide into 12 equal pieces. Roll each into a stick shape and place on greased baking sheet.
6. Second rise: Cover and let rise for 30 minutes until puffy.
7. Bake: Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Bake breadsticks for 12-15 minutes until golden brown.
8. Brush topping: Brush warm breadsticks with melted butter mixed with garlic powder and parsley.
9. Serve: Enjoy warm as a perfect companion to soups and salads.

Tips & Variations

Tip: For a vegan version of the Broccoli Cheddar Soup, substitute dairy milk with unsweetened almond or oat milk and use a vegan cheddar cheese alternative. Nutritional yeast can add a cheesy flavor boost.

Variation: Add cooked quinoa or beans to the garden salad for extra protein and texture.

Tip: To make the breadsticks gluten-free, experiment with gluten-free flour blends, but note the texture will differ.

Variation: Spice up your breadsticks by adding chopped rosemary or parmesan cheese before baking.
