Delicious!  My go to broccoli soup recipe - no dairy.   My modifications were: organic chicken stock, organic coconut oil, 2-slices of red onion food processed with a small shallot, 1-lg russet potato, garlic paste, jalapeno. Blended out with my smart stick.  Spectacular, smooth & silky with a kick.  Made this within 20-min., quick, fresh, and tasty.  Bon Appetit~
