Instructions

  • Prep the ingredients per the instructions above.
  • Preheat the broiler to low.
  • Make the soup: Heat the butter in a pot over medium heat. Sauté the onions and garlic until the onions start to soften. Stir in the flour and cook for 1-2 minutes. Stir in the broth, broccoli, and scallions. Season with salt and pepper. Cover with a lid and bring to a simmer for about 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • Make the croutons: Dice the bread and transfer it to a bowl. Mix in the oil, garlic powder, and salt and pepper. Lay on a foil-lined baking sheet and place under the broiler until toasted golden brown, mixing the croutons around every couple of minutes so all sides get toasted. Once toasted, set aside.
  • Make the sandwich: Toast the bread. Spread the mustard and mayo on one side of each slice of bread. Layer the bread with lettuce, tomato, ham, and cheese. Cut in half.
  • Finish the soup: Stir the cream until fully combined. Taste and adjust the seasoning with salt if needed.
  • Mix the ingredients for the spritzer. Squeeze in the lime wedges. Serve over ice if desired.
  • Serve: Portion the soup and top with croutons. Serve with half a sandwich, chips, and spritzer.
