Keto Broccoli Cheese Soup

Soup has always been one of my favorites foods, and I don't mean homemade. I'm talking Progresso canned chicken noodle soup! Crazy, I know, but it's always been a comfort for me, especially in the winter! However, after going keto I knew that had to change. Not only did I cut back on all the processed foods I ate, but I upped the fat 10 fold. My new favorite soup is this Keto Broccoli Cheese Soup!

• 1 cup Broccoli
• 5 oz Cheddar Cheese
• 2 tbsp Butter
• 1/2 tsp xanthan Gum
• 1/4 cup Onion
