Ingredients
2-3 Tbsp. butter
1 yellow onion, chopped
2 ribs celery, diced
3 tsp. garlic, minced
5 cups broccoli, cut into small florets
1 32-oz. carton chicken broth
1 tsp. dried oregano
1/4 tsp. ground nutmeg
1/8 tsp. cayenne
1 tsp. salt or more to taste
1/2 tsp black pepper or more to taste
1 can evaporated milk
1 lb. block Velveeta
1 8-oz. bag sharp cheddar shredded cheese
2 oz. cream cheese, cubed
Instructions
In a frying pan, saute the celery, onion and garlic in butter until soft. Transfer to a slow cooker. You can also use your Instant Pot by using the Saute setting. Since my Instant Pot also has a slow cooker feature, I am going to take advantage of making the soup in it from start to finish. One less dish to wash, right?

Add the broccoli and chicken broth.

Add the nutmeg, oregano, cayenne, salt and pepper. Stir. Add the evaporated milk, Velveeta, cheddar cheese and cream cheese. Stir.

Place the lid on the slow cooker and cook on low for 8 hours or on high for 4 hours. Stir well before serving.
