Kelly's Back in the Kitchen — For Soup Season
WJHL's In the Kitchen with Kelly has become a regular guest at SmashMeals. Host Kelly Goetz and the WJHL+ crew returned to our Kingsport kitchen for a soup-season episode built around one of the coziest dishes on the menu: broccoli cheddar soup.
This makes the third round of filming with the show, following two earlier visits — three episodes on citrus chicken, spinach artichoke, and egg white omelets, then a segment on smoking Boston butt and brisket. Add broccoli cheddar soup to the list and that is six SmashMeals dishes Kelly has now featured on In the Kitchen with Kelly.
Why Broccoli Cheddar Fits SmashMeals
Broccoli cheddar soup is the kind of comfort food people assume has to be off-limits when they are watching macros or eating gluten-free. It doesn't have to be. Built the right way, it is a satisfying, protein-friendly option for cooler weather — which is exactly the kind of "healthy doesn't mean boring" message SmashMeals tries to put on every plate.
Watch the Segment
"In the Kitchen with Kelly: Broccoli Cheddar Soup with Smash Meals" is streaming now on the WJHL+ app (available on Roku, Fire TV, Apple TV, and newer Samsung TVs), where new episodes of In the Kitchen with Kelly air Wednesdays at 6:30 p.m. Head there for the full recipe walkthrough.
