Broccoli and Mushroom soups

It's a little late but here are the broccoli and mushroom soups' recipes.
Broccoli Soup
Chop a whole bag of broccoli to make it smaller but not too small, just so it cooks quicker. Save a 1/4 of broccoli to put in last. Peel and saute around 4 cloves of garlic in a pot with olive oil until soft. Once done, pour water into the pot until half an inch is left from the top. Bring to boil and add the 3/4 of broccoli you have previously chopped. Cook until broccoli is soft then blend with an in pot blender thing. Take 2 tsp of corn starch and mix with cold water until fully dissolved. Pour mixture into the pot and continue to blend until it has thickened. Once blended add the broccoli that is left and season with salt, pepper, and pepper flakes. Let simmer on low heat until ready to serve.

Mushroom Soup
Break the stems off of a box of mushrooms and scrape a bit of the bark off of the top. Chop all of the shrooms but save two to add last. Saute around 4 cloves of garlic and a whole onion in a pot with olive oil. When onions and garlic are soft fill pot with water until half an inch is left from the top. Bring to boil and add the mushrooms except for the two set aside for later. Cook until mushrooms are soft then blend with an in pot blender thing. Take 2 tsp of corn starch and mix with cold water until fully dissolved. Pour mixture into the pot and continue to blend until it has thickened. Once blended add the extra mushrooms and season with salt, pepper, and chicken seasoning. Let simmer on low heat until ready to serve.
