Notes

For extra depth of flavor, consider roasting the broccoli and cauliflower in the oven for about 15 minutes before adding them to the soup. This will enhance the soup's richness. Additionally, make sure to taste and adjust seasoning to your preference, as the saltiness of the cheese can vary. Serve with crusty bread for a comforting meal.
