For a richer flavor, use homemade chicken stock. To prevent the cheese from clumping, shred it yourself instead of using pre-shredded cheese. If you prefer a smoother soup, use an immersion blender to partially blend the soup after adding the broccoli. Be careful not to over-blend, as this can make the soup gummy.
