Brussels Sprout get such a bad wrap but you know what they taste amazing, especially as a soup! When I cook Brussels Sprout, I like to treat them like little cabbage rolls and they taste the same way. That's how this soup is. Four simple ingredients blended smooth and oddly enough the final product is a warm, comforting soup. If I had to compare it to another soup I would say it is closest to Quick and Easy Broccoli Cheddar Soup It is the much lighter and healthier version though 😏

Frequently Asked Questions
Nothing happens. The result and process is the exact same. I guess it is a bit easier as you do not need to wash and trim the sprouts as that has already been done! *happy dance*
Salt and Pepper and Grated Cheddar. Its always nice to add a table spoon or two of fat to each bowl such as Cream, Coconut Milk, Sour Cream or Plain Greek Yogurt
