Broccoli Cheese Soup in a Bread Bowl

I'm a lover of soup.

I actually can't believe I don't have more soup recipe's on here, sorry about that...

but I'm pretty sure after this one you'll forgive all my shortcomings.

I came up with this recipe after looking over a few others and then adding what I had and what I thought sounded good. The best thing about soup is you can add whatever you want and it's more than likely going to be good.

I also have an unhealthy love of bread...

So this meal is pretty much like crack to me...I shouldn't even take one bite.
