The Best & Easiest Broccoli with Potato & Cheese Soup

There are so many times I make “stuff” because I have ingredients in my refrigerator that need to be used. Like this Broccoli with Potato & Cheese Soup. I didn’t want to spend a lot of time making this soup and I didn’t want this broccoli to hang out in the refrigerator any longer, so I just dumped broccoli florets in a saucepan, added diced potatoes, added a half onion, quartered, then barely covered with chicken stock.
