Cut the florets off the stalk and into bite sized pieces. You can also peel the stalk, cut off the bottom inch or so and then cut the stalk into thin slices.

Add chicken broth, salt and pepper and stir until thickened. Add grated cheddar cheese and stir over low heat until cheese is melted. Serve warm with chopped green onions for garnish if desired.
