Stilton and broccoli soup is one of my all time favourite soups to make, especially when i'm skint! I found some long clawson stilton in the fridge left over from Christmas, and it needed using up so I made this. You'd be surprised at how very few ingredients you need to make a hearty, healthy soup that doesn't break the bank.

Like I said in the video though, they key to getting this soup right is to continuously taste. That way you can adjust the seasoning and the amount of stilton to your taste. It's a great soup for batch cooking and also for freezing. This stilton and broccoli soup is great just on it's own, with a big chunk of buttered crusty bread to go with it.
