I make it different each time but basically use a block of velveta and chicken broth. Then add broccoli frozen or fresh (cook before adding).

This base can also be turned into a different soup but adding rotel tomatoes instead of broccoli.
Also throw in some chicken.
I have even added sliced olives to this version.

I think I did it hamburger style once too.

A block of velveeta and some broth and your set LOL.

I always start my cream soups with a butter/flour base (roux) I use equal parts flour and butter, for every two tablespoons of flour and butter, I use 1 cup of milk. So I start with 1/2 cup butter, let it melt, add 1/2 cup of flour, wisk together, add 4 cups of milk, stir over medium heat until thick, add seasonings (I usually add a little bit of chicken base, salt & pepper) then once thick, cooked potatoes, or cooked broccoli, sometimes both, sometimes a bag of cooked frozen steamers. We top it with cheese when we eat it, if it's too thick, just add a little milk. My kids love it when I made cream soups.

HTH.
